My name is Chrisy and I’m one of the voices over here at . This is actually the third recipe I’ve shared here. I'll be bringing you fun and easy eats once a month, but in the meantime, you can find me fawning over good eats Homemade Hooplah.

I also like that the chips are baked, making them a healthier option than their deep-fried brethren.
Lately I’ve been whipping up a batch of these veggie chips for our evening TV time. It’s been great to wind down the day with a little entertainment and some guilt-free snacking.
Recipe Tips for Baked Zucchini:
- This recipe is written to use 3-4 medium-sized zucchini. If you’re shopping by weight, this should be 1 to 2 pounds of zucchini.
- If you’d like the panko breading to be dark and crispy, be generous when you spray the baking sheet with cooking spray.
- These are called "chips”, but this is only due to the round shape. The panko breading will add a crispy texture, but the zucchini rounds will be soft once baked.
RECOMMENDED KITCHEN TOOLS FOR THIS RECIPE:
- A trusty knife - for cutting the zucchini
- Jelly Roll Pans (baking sheets with sides) - used for everything from cookies to roasting, a good baking pan will last for years.
Enjoy!

prep time: 15 mins cook time: 20 mins total time: 35 mins
Ingredients
- 4 medium zucchini, sliced into 1/4" to 1/2" pieces
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 pinch salt, to taste
- 1 pinch black pepper, to taste
- Dipping sauce of your choice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Line two baking sheets with aluminum foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray, then set aside.

- In another medium bowl, add panko, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to taste, then mix well.

Transfer coated zucchini to prepared baking sheet. Repeat this step until all zucchini are coated, spacing zucchini so that no pieces are touching. If desired, spray breaded zucchini with more cooking spray for a crispier finish.
