Get the oven hot, about 220°C (420°F). Put parchment paper on a baking pan so it’s simple to clean up afterward. In addition to preventing the breadsticks from sticking, this also makes them simpler to remove.
Controlling the Humidity: 2. Squeeze the shredded zucchini tightly to remove any extra moisture using a clean dishcloth or kitchen towel. The ideal amount of drained zucchini is around 1 cup.
Changing Up the Taste: 3. Toss the drained zucchini with the egg, half of the shredded mozzarella cheese, almond flour, Italian seasoning, salt, and white pepper in a mixing bowl. Add in the shredded mozzarella and stir well. Toss the ingredients together well to combine them.
Fourth, shape the breadsticks by spooning the zucchini mixture onto the baking sheet that you’ve prepared. Press the mixture into a rectangle that is about 0.25 inches (6mm) thick using a spatula or the back of a spoon. This will serve as the foundation for your mouth-watering breadsticks.
Base Baking: 5. After the zucchini mixture has been created, transfer it to a baking sheet and bake it for 15 minutes in a preheated oven. Be careful not to let them get too dark; you want the edges to begin to become a golden brown.
Sixth, before adding cheese, take the baking sheet out of the oven and gently turn the breadsticks made of zucchini over. That way, the cooking and browning are uniform. Melt the butter and brush it over the breadsticks to provide a basis for the cheese. A final garnish of leftover Parmesan and mozzarella cheese will finish off the dish.
Moist Delight: 7. After 5 more minutes of baking, the cheese should be melted and bubbling. Put the baking sheet back in the oven. The visually appealing and irresistibly flavorful golden brown cheese is the perfect finishing touch.
Finally, after the breadsticks are done baking, take them out of the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before cutting and serving. Finish them up with a sprinkling of the finely chopped parsley. Vibrant and invigorating, the fresh herbs elevate the dish.
