For extra crispy fries, lightly spray the coated zucchini with cooking oil before baking. Feel free to experiment with different seasonings! Garlic powder, onion powder, or smoked paprika would be delicious additions. If you don't have almond meal, you can make your own by grinding whole almonds in a food processor until finely ground. These fries are best served immediately for optimal crispness. However, leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheated in the oven or air fryer.
