Time to coat the beans! Dip each green bean in the egg mixture first, then roll them in the cheese mixture making sure to coat them evenly.
Now, transfer the beans to the baking tray leaving space between each one. Drizzle the olive oil over the top of the beans and bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown.
