Description
Simple recipe for making crispy zucchini slices using an air fryer.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium zucchini
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (195°C).
- Wash and trim the ends of the zucchini.
- Slice the zucchini thinly, about 1/8 inch thick. A mandoline works well for uniform slices.
- In a bowl, toss the zucchini slices with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
- If using, sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the slices and toss gently.
- Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Do not overcrowd; work in batches if necessary.
- Air fry for 8 to 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the edges are golden brown and crisp.
- Remove from the air fryer and serve immediately.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, you can lightly dust the slices with a small amount of cornstarch before adding oil.
- Check the crisps frequently after 8 minutes, as cook time varies by air fryer model.
