Olive oil | 2 tablespoons |
Salt | 1 teaspoon |
How To Make 3-Ingredient Low Carb Fries
Preheat Oven & Prep Zucchini: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash the zucchinis well and slice them into thin strips so they resemble classic fries.
Season the Fries: Arrange the zucchini strips on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil evenly over them and sprinkle with salt for flavor. Toss gently to coat.
Bake: Place the tray in the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through. Remove once the fries are golden and crispy.
Cool & Serve: Allow the fries to cool for a few minutes before serving hot and crunchy.
Expert Tips for Success
- Uniform Cuts: Keep the zucchini strips the same size so they cook evenly.
- Remove Moisture: Pat the zucchini dry with paper towels before seasoning to avoid sogginess.
- Adjust Cooking Time: Bake longer if you prefer extra crisp fries.
- Experiment with Seasonings: Try garlic powder, paprika, or Italian seasoning for extra flavor variety.
