These green beans are crispy, crunchy, and completely addictive!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound green beans
  • 1 cup whole wheat Panko breadcrumbs*
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese**
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 2 large eggs***
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • Creamy Honey-Mustard Dip (recipe below) or other dipping sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or coat with cooking spray.
  2. Trim ends off of green beans and cut into 2 to 3-inch length pieces
  3. Mix the bread crumbs, cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and oil in a bowl. Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl. Place the flour in a third bowl.
  4. Make an assembly line with the three bowls, first dipping the green beans into the flour, then the egg and finally into the bread crumb mixture, coating the beans evenly and repeating with the remainder of the beans.
  5. Place all of the coated green beans on the baking sheet. Arrange beans so that they’re not touching and bake for 12 minutes or until the bread crumbs are golden. Serve warm with a squeeze of fresh lemon and dipping sauce, if desired.

Notes:

*Can use any kind of breadcrumbs, including gluten-free or substitute ground 

​almonds for a grain-free option. Flour can also be replaced with a gluten-free flour

blend or any starch (cornstarch, tapioca flour, or potato starch).

**For dairy-free option, substitute nutritional yeast or omit cheese.

***For egg-free option, use ¼ cup milk mixed with 1 tablespoon ground flax seed.

Our two girls are grown now with a tiny one each of their own. Can’t wait to start cooking with the next generation!

I love to use my crock pot year round. In the winter for comfort foods and in the summer because it is just too darn hot here most of the time. But I still enjoy a good soup during the summer and I’m bound to find one here!
