# Tips from flavorandfeast:

01 -
  • That addictive crunch comes from a smart almond flour Parmesan combo that actually stays crispy
  • They come together in under 40 minutes but taste like you worked way harder on them
02 -
  • Extra moisture is the enemy here, so don't skip patting those zucchini dry before coating them
  • Letting them cool slightly on the baking sheet for just 2 minutes after baking helps them firm up even more
03 -
  • Use the smallest holes on your grater for the Parmesan so it incorporates smoothly into the coating
  • If your coating isn't sticking well, try adding a tablespoon of water to your beaten eggs to thin them slightly
