07 - Lightly spray the fries with olive oil spray for extra crispiness.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • You get that addictive fried food satisfaction without the grease or carb guilt
  • The coating actually stays on instead of ending up all over your baking sheet
02 -
  • Excess moisture on zucchini makes the coating soggy so pat them thoroughly dry
  • Don't crowd the baking sheet or they'll steam instead of crisp up
03 -
  • Work quickly when coating so the egg doesn't make the flour gummy
  • Use tongs to keep your hands clean during the dipping process
