Ingredients
Scale
2 medium-sized zucchinis, sliced into 1/4 inch rounds
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup breadcrumbs (panko preferred)
1 egg, beaten (or flax egg for vegan option)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Optional: Fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash the zucchinis thoroughly, then slice them into 1/4 inch rounds.
In one bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, beat the egg.
Dunk each zucchini round into the egg, letting the excess drip off. Then, transfer it to the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to adhere the mixture to the zucchini.
Place the coated zucchini rounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced out to allow for even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, flipping halfway through to achieve an even golden color on both sides.
