Set up breading stations

Coat the zucchini
Dredge each zucchini stick in flour, then dip into the egg, and finally coat with the coconut-Parmesan mixture. Press gently to ensure the coating sticks.

Bake the fries
Place coated zucchini fries on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Spray lightly with olive oil or cooking spray. Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
