Units
Scale
- 1 medium summer squash
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs (try panko breadcrumbs for a crunchier texture)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon mustard power
- Salt and pepper
- Olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Grease a large baking sheet with olive oil.
- Cut your summer squash into wedges. Be sure to remove the larger seeds.
- Whisk the eggs in a dish.
- In another dish, combine the bread crumbs, paprika, mustard powder, salt and pepper.
- Start by dipping the wedges, one by one, into the egg mixture and then the bread crumb mixture. Place each wedge on the greased baking sheet. Continue until all the wedges are done.
- You can bake the wedges for about 30 to 40 minutes until they are soft inside and golden brown on the outside. If you want a more golden texture, drizzle or spray some olive oil on top of the wedges. Turn the wedges over half way through baking.
- Serve the oven-baked summer squash fries with ranch or another favorite dip.
