Garlic Herb Baked Zucchini Fries 🌿🥒🍟

Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside — these Garlic Herb Baked Zucchini Fries are the perfect way to enjoy a healthier version of fries. Coated in seasoned gluten-free breadcrumbs and baked until golden, they’re packed with flavor thanks to garlic, oregano, and thyme. Serve them as a snack, appetizer, or side dish — and don’t forget a dipping sauce like ranch or spicy tomato salsa!

Benefits of Each Ingredient

Zucchinis

  • Low in calories but high in fiber and hydration.

  • A great source of vitamin C and antioxidants.

  • Naturally light, making them ideal for a healthy fry alternative.

Garlic

  • Adds a bold, savory flavor.

  • Contains allicin, known for its immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties.

Egg + Plant Milk

  • The egg helps the breadcrumb coating stick.

  • A splash of plant milk keeps the mixture light and dairy-free friendly.

Gluten-Free Breadcrumbs

  • Create the crispy coating while keeping the recipe coeliac-friendly.

  • Can be made from gluten-free bread or bought ready-made.

Oregano & Thyme

  • Classic Mediterranean herbs that add earthy, fragrant flavor.

  • Both are rich in antioxidants and may support digestion.

These baked zucchini fries are a guilt-free treat — no deep frying required! Pair them with a fresh salad for a light meal or serve alongside burgers and wraps for a fun twist.
