Crispy Vegan Oven-Fried Zucchini Sticks

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Vegan Oven-Fried Zucchini Sticks.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and give a large baking sheet a light drizzle of olive oil to prevent sticking.

2. Step 2

   In a mixing bowl, combine water and soy flour to whip up a thick batter that should remind you of pancake batter.

3. Step 3

   On a shallow plate, blend together bread crumbs, herbes de Provence, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and a pinch of cayenne pepper for a flavorful kick.

4. Step 4

   Now, take each zucchini spear and dip it into the batter, making sure it’s well coated.

5. Step 5

   Then, roll it in the seasoned bread crumb mixture until it’s completely covered in that delicious crunch.

6. Step 6

   Arrange the coated zucchini spears on your prepared baking sheet with the cut side facing down, ensuring they’re all lined up in the same direction for even cooking.

7. Step 7

   Pop the baking sheet into your preheated oven and let them bake for about 10 minutes.

8. Step 8

   After that, flip the spears over to the other cut side and bake for another 10 minutes.

9. Step 9

   For the final touch, turn the spears so they’re skin-side down and continue baking until they turn a beautiful golden brown, which should take about 5 more minutes.

10. Step 10

    Once they’re perfectly crispy, transfer the zucchini sticks to a serving platter and serve them up with a side of vegan mayonnaise and ketchup for dipping.
