Ingredients

  • 2 whole Zucchini medium to large size
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons All purpose seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon Onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 350° F. Wash your zucchini thoroughly under cold water to remove any debris.
  • Start by cutting the ends off of each zucchini and discarding them. Next, cut each zucchini in half lengthwise. Now slice the zucchini into thin slices, about ½ inch each. 
  • Place the sliced zucchini into a large bowl and drizzle in the olive oil. Now add the seasonings including the all purpose seasoning (or seasoned salt), the garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. 
  • Use tongs or a spoon to toss the zucchini in the bowl to ensure each piece is fully coated by the olive oil and seasoning. 
  • Add the seasoned zucchini to a piece of parchment paper or aluminum foil, try to place them in one even layer if possible. Now place it in the air fryer. 
  • Air fry the zucchini for 7 minutes at 350º F. Open the air fryer and use the tongs to gently turn the zucchini. Air fry for an additional 7 minutes. Serve right away, and enjoy!
