Fried Zucchini Sticks

Our garden always produces a ton of zucchini in the summer. This is one of our favorite ways to cook it. Serve with ranch dressing for dipping.

Step: 1

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step: 2

Whisk buttermilk and eggs together in a shallow dish.

Step: 3

Mix flour, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, baking powder, and salt together in a separate shallow dish.

Step: 4

Dip zucchini sticks into the egg mixture; roll in bread crumbs to coat. Dip in the egg mixture again; reroll in bread crumbs.

Step: 5

Cook breaded zucchini sticks in batches in the hot oil until golden brown, about 3 minutes per batch. Drain on a large plate lined with paper towels.
