- Uniform slices: Cut the squash into even ¼-inch rounds so they bake evenly.
- Dry the squash first: If your squash seems moist, pat the slices dry with paper towels before coating to help the breadcrumbs stick.
- Mix up the cheese: Try adding mozzarella or a little pepper jack for extra flavor.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to bring back the crispiness.
