Baked Green Bean Fries

Ingredients

• 1 pound Fresh Green Beans, Rinsed With Ends Trimmed
• ½ cups Plain Breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• ½ teaspoons Pepper
• 3 whole Eggs, Whisked Together
• Optional Spices: Chili Powder, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Cayenne Pepper, Italian Seasoning, Greek Seasoning, Or Your Favorite Spice!

Preparation Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with nonstick spray. Set it aside.

Add the breadcrumbs into a large Ziploc bag, along with the salt and pepper and any spices that sound good. Shake to combine everything.

Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Dump the green beans into the egg mixture and, using your hands (it’s a dirty job!) coat all of the beans with the egg.

Next add the coated beans into the Ziploc bag, seal, and shake to coat with the breadcrumbs. If needed, add more breadcrumbs.

Turn out the contents of the bag onto the baking sheet and spread the beans evenly. Bake at 400ºF for 10 minutes, then gently turn the fries to evenly bake. Bake another 10-15 minutes until breadcrumbs are browned and crisp.

Serve straight from the baking sheet with whatever sauces you like to dip in! We love ranch and ketchup, not together, but salsa or even guacamole would be good too!

Note: After baking let the beans cool a bit before piling on top of one another. This will keep them crisp and insure the breading stays on them!
