Ingredient Notes
Zucchini – I used 3 medium sized zucchinis, about 1 ½ pounds in total. Breadcrumbs – Panko works best for the crispiest result! Parmesan cheese – Freshly grated or from a container. Egg – You’ll need a large egg do dip the zucchini sticks in so that the breadcrumb mixture sticks to them.
How To Make Baked Parmesan Zucchini Sticks
Tips
Storing Leftovers
These zucchini sticks will last 2 days stored in an airtight container in the fridge. Make sure to let them fully cool down to room temperature before storing.
Reheating
Reheat zucchini sticks in the oven at 350°F for 10-12 minutes or until crisp and warmed through. It will warm up easier if you allow the zucchini sticks to sit and warm up at room temperature for 15-20 minutes while the oven preheats.
Freezing
Once they’ve cooled to room temperature, place the zucchini sticks on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Freeze for 1-2 hours until solid. Transfer the zucchini to a large freezer bag or airtight container. They will last up to 1 year frozen. Keep in mind, since zucchini is very high in water content, it will be much softer and more limp after being frozen and thawed. You can reheat them directly from the freezer to the oven at 325°F for 20-25 minutes.
