Gluten-Free Baked Zucchini Fries
SERVES
4PREP TIME
10 minCOOK TIME
15 minIngredients
1½ cups / 140g freshly grated Pecorino Romano (Parmesan will also work)
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1½ teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
2 teaspoons dried oregano
3 to 4 medium zucchini
1 tablespoon coconut oil or ghee, melted
Hot sauce, for serving (optional)
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F / 180°C. Set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet.
-
In a medium bowl, combine the cheese, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, and oregano.
-
Slice the zucchinis into thin wedges; you should get about 12 pieces from each vegetable. Toss the wedges in the coconut oil to coat, then toss them in the cheese mixture, pressing the wedges into the cheese to set. Place the coated fries on the wire rack.
-
Bake the zucchini fries until tender, 12 to 15 minutes, then place them under the broiler until the cheese is golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve immediately with hot sauce if desired.
