Here's a clever way to get your kids to eat zucchini–and these crisp little fries are a heck of a lot healthier than French fries! You don't need a deep-fryer to make them, either. Low in carbs, and perfect for those of us who are mindful of our weight, Zucchini Oven Fries make a great appetizer, party food, or supper side dish.

Directions

Ingredients

  • Canola Oil Cooking Spray
  • 1⁄2 cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1⁄2 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 tablespoons Corn Meal
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Step 1

Preheat oven to 475F. Coat a large baking sheet evenly with cooking spray. In a large sealable plastic bag, combine flours, cornmeal, salt, and pepper.

Ingredients

  • 3 medium Zucchini, cut into 1/2 by 3 inch sticks
  • 2 Egg Whites, lightly beaten

Step 2

Dip zucchini sticks in beaten egg white, then shake in the bag to coat with flour mixture. Arrange on baking sheet, not touching. Coat exposed sides with cooking spray.
 

Step 3

Bake on center rack for 7 minutes. Turn zucchini sticks and coat any floury spots with cooking spray. Continue baking another 5 minutes or so, until just tender and golden. Serve hot.
