Notes

Helpful Recipe Tips

Can I use coconut flour, simply put due to the nature of coconut flour that is not something you'd want to use in this recipe. It doesn't work 1:1 at all with any ingredient.
Pat dry, don't skip this step because zucchini is a high water content squash. After cutting just remember to lay them out and pat them out with a towel.
Flash fry after baking, this will ensure a fresh crispy crust if it's not crispy enough coming out the oven. A quick broil can also work when using the oven.
