Crispy Air Fryer Zucchini Bites
These Crispy Air Fryer Zucchini Bites are a quick and healthy snack or side dish, perfect for satisfying cravings with minimal effort and maximum crispiness!
Equipment
- Air Fryer
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini sliced into half moons
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Start by preheating your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes. This gets it nice and hot for crispy results!
- While it preheats, wash and thoroughly dry your zucchini. Slice them into semi-thick rounds, then cut each round into half moons. A good dry is key for crispiness!
- Place the dry zucchini half moons into a mixing bowl.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the zucchini, then sprinkle with smoked paprika, garlic salt, and black pepper. Toss everything gently until the zucchini pieces are evenly coated.
- Now, add the Parmesan cheese and toss again, ensuring every zucchini piece gets a lovely cheesy coating.
- Carefully arrange the seasoned zucchini in a single layer in your air fryer basket, making sure no pieces overlap. This allows for even cooking and maximum crispiness.
- Air fry for 10 minutes at 400°F (200°C), or until they are tender-crisp and beautifully golden. Serve immediately as a delicious side or snack!
- Any delicious leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a few days.
