Set up three separate bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.
Coat the halloumi sticks by first dredging them in flour, shaking off any excess, then dipping them in the beaten eggs, and finally coating them evenly with panko breadcrumbs.
Arrange the coated halloumi sticks on the prepared baking sheet and bake until the panko breadcrumbs turn golden brown, approximately 20-25 minutes.
