100 grams breadcrumbs
50 grams all-purpose flour
Olive oil spray (for spraying, not frying)

Prepare the Zucchini:

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with olive oil spray.
Roll each zucchini slice in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Dip each slice into the egg mixture, ensuring they are well-coated.

Bake the Zucchini:
Lightly spray the tops of the zucchini slices with olive oil spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
