Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchinis (or squash)
  • cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp italian seasoning (optional, can skip if using seasoned panko breadcrumbs)
  • ¼ cup parmesan cheese (shredded works best)
  • 2 Tbsp oil (olive oil recommended)
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix together ⅓ cup panko breadcrumbs, 1 tsp italian seasoning (if using), and ¼ cup parmesan cheese. Set aside.
  • Slice zucchini into rounds, approximately ⅓" thick. Add to a medium bowl. Add 2 Tbsp. olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper and toss until rounds are fully coated. You may want to use a fork or your hands to separate them if they stick together to make sure they're fully coated.
  • Grab each round and press them into the panko mixture on both sides to coat in crumbs. Lay them evenly spaced out across a parchment-paper lined sheet pan. Repeat with all the rounds.
  • Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until cheese mixture takes on a golden color.
