Large zucchini have large seeds inside and tend to be bitter.
Medium zucchini look pretty sliced into rounds and are the perfect two- to three-bite snacks.
Youll get 12 to 15 1/2-inch rounds from each.

I call for 2 medium zucchini in this recipe, so youll get 24 to 30 zucchini rounds.
Of course, if you want to make more, you could!
Just cut more rounds and increase the amount of flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs as needed.

That said, they will still be tasty after 2 to 3 hours.
After that, they wont be quite as crunchy.
Reheat them for about 10 minutes in a 400oF oven.

Have an Abundance of Zucchini?
Slice the zucchini into 1/2-inch rounds.
In a shallow bowl or pie pan, stir together the flour, salt, and black pepper.

In a separate shallow bowl or pie pan, whisk the eggs until the yolks and whites are combined.
In a third shallow bowl or pie pan, stir the Panko and Parmesan together.
This will be your assembly line to bread the zucchini.

Then, dip them into the egg, allowing excess to drip off.
Finally, evenly dredge them in the breadcrumbs.
This will allow the breadcrumbs to really stick to the zucchini.
