Air Fryer Zucchini Chips
Ingredients
- 2 zucchini
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Editor’s Tip: If you can source fresh dark green zucchini, there’s nothing like it. Young, smaller zucchini are tender and will yield the best results.
- Air Fryer: Making zucchini in an air fryer mimics deep frying, but uses hot air to crisp the food instead of oil. The zucchini might not be as crisp as when it is fried, but it still yields great results. If you haven’t bought an air fryer yet, here are the Taste of Home Test Kitchen’s picks for the best air fryers.
- Heat-Resistant Tongs: Since the air fryer gets hot, use a pair of tongs to flip and remove the zucchini rounds from the basket.
- Mandoline: A mandoline ensures the slices are evenly cut, which leads to evenly cooked zucchini chips.

- Once cooked, carefully move the zucchini to a bowl using tongs.
- Tips for Making Air-Fryer Zucchini Chips
- What do I serve with zucchini chips?
- You can enjoy the zucchini chips as is, or pair it with one of our favorite dips like garlic aioli, hummus, curry mayo or dill vegetable dip.
- How do I keep the zucchini from sticking in the air fryer?
- Make sure you shake the air fryer basket every 5 minutes so the zucchini discs don’t stick to the sides.
- Can I use frozen zucchini?
- We recommend using only fresh zucchini for this recipe. Your chips won’t get as crispy if you use previously frozen zucchini.
