Low Carb Broccoli Fries Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup.
- Cut the broccoli into fry-sized pieces, ensuring each has a flat side to lie on the baking sheet.
- In a shallow dish, mix together the whole wheat breadcrumbs, reduced-fat Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
- Dip each broccoli piece into the egg, allowing the excess to drip off, and then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture to coat all sides.
- Arrange the coated broccoli on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure the pieces do not touch.
- Lightly spray the broccoli with cooking spray. This helps achieve a golden color and crispy texture.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the broccoli is crispy and golden brown. Flip halfway through baking for even crispiness.
- Let the broccoli fries cool slightly before serving.
