Ingredients

Cooking spray
2 medium zucchini (about 1 pound total)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan (3/4-ounce)
1/4 cup plain dry bread crumbs
1/8 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.

Slice the zucchini into 1/4-inch thick rounds. In a medium bowl, toss the zucchini with the oil. In a small bowl, combine the Parmesan, bread crumbs, salt, and a few turns of pepper. Dip each round into the Parmesan mixture, coating it evenly on both sides, pressing the coating on to stick, and place in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake the zucchini rounds until browned and crisp, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove with spatula. Serve immediately.

Really great!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Don't use the olive oil. It takes a ton, adds calories, and doesn't really pick up any bread crumbs. Dip each piece in egg (I... used egg beaters), and then dip in the bread-parm mixture. Spray the pan and tops of zucc's with spray oil. Also, I added salt, ground pepper, garlic powder, and some cayenne to the breading. I could only make 2 small zucc's with the amount of breading called for, but it was the right amount as an app for 2. Reading from other reviews, I made a horseradish dip with some powder I stole from mom's cabinet (ha!); I added mayo and added a small amount of water to make it thin and creamy. On second thought, it was a Penzey brand mixture. Really yummy, not eben taking into consideration that I didn't follow the dip directions. I'm a very picky veggie eater! (If you have kids, they would probably eat this.) I can't wait to make it again!!Read more

taste was great!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I thought that this recipe tasted almost exactly like the fried kind. They were very crisp and delicious. You may need more... olive oil when cooking. And cook for less time depending on the size of zucchini. I cooked mine for 27 mins. and they turned out okay but some of them burned. I used small ones. ( cook only for 20 mins) Only because larger zucchinis were NOT available at the grocery store. I am planning on making them again! Read more

Great!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These turned out really great! Make sure you turn them half way through to brown both sides and don't let them bake for more... than 20 minutes total. Otherwise, they will overcook and become too soft!Read more

Loved these!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My husband and I loved this. The only thing I would do differently is flip these over once during bake time. I kind of burned... the bottoms of mine, but they were still good! Will definitely make these again.Read more

Baking the zucchini instead of frying saved alot of calories and mess, but these crisps did not have much flavor. I would... not make these again. Thank you for sharing your receipe.Read more
