Ingredients
- Fresh Zucchini
- Olive Oil (or other light oil)
- Salt
- Black Pepper
- Garlic Powder
- Onion Powder
- Optional Seasonings: Smoked Paprika, Dried Herbs, Nutritional Yeast, Chili Powder or Cayenne
Instructions
- Prepare the Zucchini: First, wash your zucchini thoroughly and pat them completely dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Slice the zucchini into uniform 1/8-inch thick rounds.
- Season the Zucchini: In a large bowl, combine the sliced zucchini, olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder (plus any other optional seasonings you're using). Toss everything gently until every single zucchini slice is lightly coated with oil and seasonings.
- Preheat Your Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes.
- Arrange in a Single Layer: Place the seasoned zucchini slices in a single layer in your air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding the basket.
- Air Fry to Perfection: Cook the zucchini chips at 375°F (190°C) for 10-15 minutes. About halfway through, shake the basket or flip the chips to ensure even cooking. Keep an eye on them during the last few minutes.
- Cool and Serve: Once done, carefully remove the crispy zucchini chips from the air fryer basket and transfer them to a wire rack. Allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
