Air Fryer Roasted Zucchini
Quick and savory air fryer roasted zucchini, perfectly tender with a slightly crispy edge, ideal for busy weeknights and meal prep.
Ingredients
Veggies
- 2 medium zucchinis
Oil & Seasoning
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Optional Seasonings
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and slice the zucchinis into rounds or half-moons about 1/4-inch thick.
- In a bowl, toss the zucchini slices with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning until evenly coated.
Cooking
- Place the seasoned zucchini in the air fryer basket in a single layer, working in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding.
- Cook for 10–12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the zucchini is tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
- Serve immediately as a side dish while hot.
Notes
Don't overcrowd the basket for crispiness; slice evenly for uniform cooking. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. For a cheesy finish, add grated parmesan in the last 1–2 minutes of cooking.
