Note
- Soak the slices: Briefly soaking zucchini slices in cold water for 30 minutes removes excess starch, leading to crispier chips. Dry them thoroughly before breading.
- Don't crowd the basket:Â Leave space between slices in the air fryer for optimal air circulation and even browning.
- Double coat for extra crunch: Dip the slices in the breading twice for a thicker, crispier coating.
- Preheat the air fryer:Â A hot air fryer ensures golden brown results and prevents soggy chips.
Flavor & Variety:
Spice it up! Experiment with different seasonings beyond salt and pepper. Try paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, Italian herbs, or chili flakes. -
For Vegan and Vegetarian: Skip egg and cheese, make the paste of flour, cornstarch and spices with little water. Dip the zucchini slices first in flour paste then coat with breadcrumbs.
For Gluten free option: Use gluten free flour and breadcrumbs.
