Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large zucchini
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and dry the zucchini. Slice it into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick.
- In a medium bowl, toss the zucchini slices with olive oil until lightly coated.
- In a separate small bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Sprinkle the cheese mixture over the zucchini slices, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cook in batches.
- Air fry for 8-12 minutes, or until the chips are golden brown and crispy. Flip them halfway through cooking for even crisping.
- Remove from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before enjoying.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, you can pat the zucchini slices dry with a paper towel before coating them with oil and seasoning.
- Adjust the garlic powder and salt to your preference.
- Experiment with other seasonings like Italian herbs or a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
