High Fibre Crispy Baked Zucchini Fries

Great high protein, high fibre appetizer. You can also use them as a side dish to a perfectly BBQ’d burger.

Ingredients

• 2-3 small zucchini, sliced into fry shapes
• 1/4 cup flour (I used chickpea flour to offer a gluten-free option, but I don’t see why regular flour shouldn’t also work.) (24g)
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 cup almond milk (120g)
• 1 cup flax meal (40g)
• 3 tblsp nutritional yeast flakes

DIRECTIONS

Step 1

Preheat oven to 420F. Lightly grease a cooling rack, place it on a baking tray, and set aside.

Step 2

Set up an assembly line: flour and spices in one bowl, milk in another, and flax meal and yeast flakes in a third.

Step 3

Dip each zucchini stick in the flour, then the milk, then the flax mixture. Place on the cooling rack.

Step 4

Bake 18-19 minutes, or until desired crispiness is reached. Makes 40-45 fries.
