These yummy Baked Zucchini Fries are low carb, gluten-free, vegan and pair well with my delicious avocado mayo. Zucchini spears are coated with a flavorful gluten-free breading and baked for a healthier snack or side.
I decided to revisit this recipe and I was amazed how simple it was to make and how delicious it was. It has been a popular recipe on my website for over 4 years and it is loved by my readers. The almond flour is a great gluten-free breading alternative. I would advise you not to do any substitution, I have made this recipe so many times and it has worked perfectly with almond flour.
However, I have simplified the recipe for you, in the older versions, I made flax seed egg. I decided to add the ground flax seed with the almond flour and just dip the zucchini spears into unsweetened non-dairy milk before coating with the breading. Guess what! It worked like a charm.

For most of my pregnancy with Daevyd I was on a raw foods diet, but towards the end, I ate cooked foods. I loved to prepare oven fries with cashew cheese sauce and to this day Daevyd loves when I prepare them.
I loved to grow my own zucchini and share with friends, however, since moving to Florida my lifestyle has changed so much that I don’t have the time to grow my own produce plus the soil here is sandy. However, we do have a mini orchard with citrus, olive, pomegranate, loquat.
This winter has been brutal here in Florida and from what I realize, we have lost our guava tree, papaya, moringa and soursop, fig and I have a strong feeling that our pomegranate tree has succumbed to the winter artic black.
Making baked zucchini fries is a wonderful way to use up surplus zucchini.
