Baked Zucchini Coins
Servings: 4 Prep 15 mins Bake 450°F 20 mins

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup whole-wheat panko bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 medium zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch circles
  • Olive- or canola-oil spray
  • Marinara sauce for dipping, optional

Make It

1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

2. Combine bread crumbs, Parmesan, salt, and garlic powder in a small bowl. Whisk the egg in a second bowl and place the flour in a third bowl.

3. Make an assembly line with the bowls. Dip the zucchini circles first into the flour, then the egg, and finally the bread-crumb mixture, coating them evenly.

4. Place on a baking rack set over a baking sheet and spray with oil. Pop into the oven for 20 minutes, or until bread crumbs are golden. Serve with marinara sauce if desired.
