Air Fryer Curly Zucchini Fries

Ingredients

• 1 large zucchini , ends trimmed
• 1 egg
• 0.25 cups melted butter
• 0.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 1 cup panko bread crumbs
• 0.25 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. 1

   Cut zucchini into two or three 3-inch pieces, then spiralize each piece.

2. 2

   Whip egg in a shallow bowl until foamy. Carefully pour melted butter into egg and whip until blended.

3. 3

   Combine flour, oregano, garlic powder, and pepper in a second shallow bowl. Stir together panko bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese in a third bowl.

4. 4

   Dredge zucchini spirals in seasoned flour mixture, shaking off excess flour. Dip spirals in egg wash, allowing excess wash to drip off, and then dredge spirals in Parmesan-bread crumbs. Place on a clean sheet pan.
