- 1 pound zucchini about 2 large
- 1 cup finely ground almond flour
- 1 cup finely grated parmesan
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 2 eggs beaten
- Avocado oil for cooking
Trim the ends off the zucchini. Cut it in half crosswise and then in half lengthwise. Cut each piece into 4 sticks. (If there are large seeds, you can trim them off.)
In a shallow dish, stir together the almond flour, parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
In a separate shallow dish, beat the eggs.
Dip the zucchini in the eggs, and then coat with the breading. Use your hands to press the breading into the zucchini.
