Ingredients

  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1 cup cup finely grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 large zucchini cut into spears (3-inches long and ½-inch thick)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400ºF and spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
  • Add the parmesan cheese, panko, and everything bagel seasoning into a bowl and mix until combined. Set aside.
  • Crack the 3 large eggs into a separate bowl and whisk.
  • Next, dip a zucchini spear into the egg wash until coated. Dredge the spear into the panko crumb mixture until fully coated.
  • Double dip the zucchini spear into the egg wash and then again into the panko mixture. Place the zucchini on a plate.
  • Repeat steps 3-5 until all the zucchini spears have been coated.
  • Place the first batch of zucchini into the air fryer, making sure none of them touch or are overcrowded. Drizzle them with olive oil and cook the zucchini for 6-8 minutes at 400ºF (8 minutes was our magic number, but all air fryers are different). Cook until golden brown.
  • Remove the zucchini from the air fryer and air fry the rest of the zucchini.
  • Eat with ranch, sriracha, or any of your favorite dips.

Tips & Notes

  • If you don’t have everything bagel seasoning or want a simpler seasoning, you can use your favorite spice mix or simple 3 teaspoons of garlic powder.
  • If you are grating your own parmesan cheese you may need to increase the panko. Fresh
  • Parmesan has a little more moisture than already grated.
