Low-Carb Air Fryer Zucchini Fries

Low-Carb Air Fryer Zucchini Fries

Crispy, golden, savory… and unbelievably guilt-free!

If you’ve been craving something crunchy without blowing your carbs for the day, these Zucchini Air Fryer Fries are about to become your newest addiction. They taste shockingly similar to real French fries — but without the starch, without the grease, and without the sugar crash.

They’re crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and absolutely perfect for dipping into sugar-free ranch or low-carb marinara. And the best part? They take 10 minutes to prep and cook up beautifully in the air fryer.

A total game changer — and yes, whoever first suggested these deserves a medal. 🥇😄


⭐ Ingredients

For the fries:

  • 2 medium zucchini, cut into fry-shaped sticks
  • 1 cup almond flour (or crushed pork rinds for ultra-crispy)
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika (optional but delicious)
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 2 large eggs, beaten

Optional dips:

  • Sugar-free ranch
  • Sugar-free marinara
  • Garlic aioli

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prep your zucchini

Slice zucchini into evenly sized sticks — not too thick or they’ll soften too much.

2. Make the coating

In a bowl, mix together:
✔ almond flour (or pork rind crumbs)
✔ parmesan
✔ garlic powder
✔ paprika
✔ salt + pepper

3. Dip + coat

Dip each zucchini stick into the beaten eggs, then into the crumb mixture, pressing lightly to help it stick.

4. Air fry

Place coated fries in your air fryer basket in a single layer.
Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 8–12 minutes, shaking halfway through, until golden and crispy.

5. Serve hot

Enjoy immediately with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce.


📦 Storage + Reheating

  • Fridge: up to 3 days
  • Reheat: 3–4 minutes in the air fryer
    (They crisp right back up!)
