If you have never cooked air fryer zucchini, then you are in for the tastiest treat! It’s perfectly seasoned with Italian seasonings and parmesan cheese and cooked to perfection! It makes the perfect side or appetizer that the whole family will enjoy!
I love cooking vegetables in my air fryer! It gives them the most delicious, roasted texture, and the best part is the easy clean-up! Try out this air fryer “roasted” cauliflower, this delicious broccolini, or these air fryer mushrooms that are cooked to perfection!
Air Fryer Zucchini Recipe
At this time of year, my garden and kitchen are bursting with zucchini, and I love it! There are so many zucchini recipes out there to use! I intend on using as many as I possibly can! I especially loved this air fryer zucchini, though, because… it’s so simple and easy and delicious enough that we eat it as a quick snack at home!
This recipe not only takes less than 15 minutes to make, but when you cook the zucchini in the air fryer, it turns out as if you roasted it in your oven! And I don’t know about you but cooking in my oven during the summer months is the LAST thing that I want to do! That’s when the air fryer comes to the rescue. This recipe is simple and easy side dish without even using my oven once.
Ingredients You Need to Make Zucchini in the Air Fryer
These ingredients are simple and after you have your zucchini (or pick it from your garden!) and a few spices, it’s time to put it together! Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for all of the exact ingredient measurements.
- Zucchini: Cut the medium size zucchini into ½ inch slices. You don’t have to peel it!
- Olive Oil: This helps the seasonings to stick to the zucchini.
- Italian Seasoning: You can use this from the store, or you can make it at home using this recipe!
- Parmesan Cheese: I like to grate fresh parmesan from a block of cheese, but you can use pre-shredded if that makes your life easier!
- Salt and Pepper: Add these on to enhance all of the other flavors!
How to Make Air Fryer Zucchini
This low carb recipe takes less than 15 minutes to whip up. And that includes cooking time! It’s a great veggie to cook and add to the side of any entree. Or, eat it like a snack like I do. It’s healthy and delicious!
- Toss: In a medium sized bowl add the zucchini, olive oil, Italian seasoning, parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the zucchini evenly.
- Cook: Lay the zucchini in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 5 minutes.
- Shake: Shake the basket of zucchini after 5 minutes and air fry for an additional 3-5 minutes. The zucchini will be golden and crisp on the outside when done.
