    Who doesn't love fries? They were one of my favorite foods before going vegan, and I still love them so much, although I cook them in a healthier way.

    Baked French fries are the bomb and you don't even need to add any oil to make them taste amazing. Since I discovered them, I've made all kinds of baked fries like baked sweet potato fries or baked avocado fries. As zucchini is one of the veggies I eat the most, I had to make this recipe and it's so good!

    The classic recipe is made with breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese, but as I wanted to make a vegan and gluten-free version, I used my vegan Parmesan cheese instead. No breadcrumbs needed!

    Ground nuts are a great substitute for breadcrumbs if you're looking for a gluten-free alternative. Almond flour is a good choice and so convenient as you can find it at most supermarkets. I love to use my Parmesan cheese because it makes everything taste much better.

    Ingredients 

    US Customary - Metric
    • 2 large zucchinis, sliced into sticks
    • 1 batch vegan Parmesan cheese
    • ¼ cup dried oregano
    • ¼ cup unsweetened plant milk of your choice, I used soy milk

    Instructions

    • Preheat the oven to 425ºF or 220ºC.
    • Add the vegan Parmesan cheese, dried oregano and ground black pepper to a shallow dish and mix until well combined. Place the milk in a separate shallow bowl.
    • Dip the zucchini sticks into the soy milk and then place into the vegan Parmesan cheese mixture, a few at a time and shake to coat.
    • Place the zucchini fries onto a lined baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
    • Serve immediately with your favorite sauce (I used hummus) or keep leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for 2 to 3 days.

    Notes

    • Add your favorite herbs and spices.
    • Feel free to fry your zucchini fries if you don't want to use your oven.

      Yummo! I made these with dinner tonight and served with a side salad and a dollop of baba Ganouche and they were delicious! My partner is skeptics of anything I put nutritional yeast in, but he was very impressed as was I! Definitely tasted like Parmesan!

        Hi Julius! You're so welcome 🙂 Use one hand for the dry ingredients (the vegan Parmesan cheese, dried oregano and ground black pepper mixture) and the other hand for the milk. Hope it helps!
