This will be your go-to zucchini fries recipe all summer-long to enjoy those beautiful, seasonal zucchinis — trust me!
Baked Zucchini Fries (Paleo, Gluten-free, Low-carb)
Yield: 2
Ingredients
- 2 large zucchinis
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- pinch of sea salt and pepper to taste
- 1-2 large eggs
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 425f degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut zucchini into thick slices and pat dry with a paper towel.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix almond meal with seasonings.
- In a separate shallow bowl crack eggs and whisk together.
- Dip zucchini pieces into the egg wash, then dredge in almond meal mix. Make sure they are well coated.
- Add each piece to a baking sheet, make sure they’re not overlapping.
- Bake for 25 minutes, flipping halfway with tongs to get them crispy and golden on each side.
- Serve zucchini fries warm with your favorite dipping sauce of choice! I love marinara and pesto or nothing at all.
Enjoy!!

How thick do you make the slices? Does the recipe work with larger zucchini?
Curious how many this would feed? Need to make appetizers for a large group tonight!
Can you use any kind of gluten-free flour instead of almond?
I’ve tried all purpose gluten-free, and it’s not so great. I’d stick to almond flour for this specific recipe or search for a gluten free flour zucchini recipe online, it can come out sandy if you use this one.
the egg just collected the flour and didn’t stick to the zucchini so I have globs of egg flour and bare zucchini
hmm, make sure to beat the egg well and if it’s too thick, you could loosen it with water.
Anyone found an egg alternative? Would these work with psyllium husk?
You could try full fat coconut milk, that’s what I used on my breaded chicken fingers that are aip!
How much coconut milk? Do you recommend a brand?
Any full-fat coconut milk in a can, I like bpa-free can, I believe the brand I get is called native forest or similar. As much as you need to coat that amount of zucchini.
Love these are gluten free.

What could you substitute the almond flour with? I can’t have nuts.
I’ve only used almond flour but if you try something else, let us know! Perhaps tigernut flour?
I make baked carrot fries regularly but I’m definitely going to have a go at these. They sound so tasty!
