Ingredients

  • 1 zucchini,  large, cut into 1/8 inch - 1/4 inch slices
  • 1/3 cup whole-grain breadcrumbs (optional Panko)
  • 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese, reduced-fat
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Kosher or sea salt to taste
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 3 tablespoons milk, low-fat

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • Combine in a small mixing bowl breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, black pepper, salt, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Dip zucchini slices into milk and dredge into bread crumbs to coat both sides. Note: It may be necessary to press crumbs onto zucchini slices to ensure the crumbs stick.
  • Arrange zucchini on a non-stick cookie sheet and lightly mist with a non-stick cooking spray.
  • If using a rack, place the rack on a cookie sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, turn over, and continue baking until golden, approximately 10-15 minutes (being careful not to burn). Allow to cool to room temperature before storing in an airtight container.
  • TIP: Zucchini Chips will continue to get crispier while cooling.

Notes

For gluten-free chips, use gluten-free bread crumbs.
