A delightful twist on a classic zucchini dish, these cheesy bites are perfect for a quick and flavorful snack or side.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lining the baking sheet with parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Slice the zucchini into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
Try to keep the slices uniform for even cooking.
Melt the butter in a small bowl.
Use a microwave or stovetop to melt the butter gently.
Dip each zucchini slice into the melted butter, then coat one side with grated Parmesan cheese.
Press the cheese gently onto the zucchini to ensure it sticks well.
Arrange the zucchini slices on the prepared baking sheet, cheese side up.
Leave some space between the slices for better crisping.
Sprinkle the slices with salt and fresh basil leaves.
Tear the basil leaves for a more rustic look and even distribution.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Keep an eye on the zucchini to avoid over-browning.
Serve warm and enjoy your cheesy zucchini bites!
These are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven for maximum crispiness.
