Air Fryer Courgette Crisps
These Air Fryer Courgette Crisps provide a satisfying crunch with minimal oil, making them a perfect snack or starter for any occasion.
Ingredients
For the Courgette Crisps
- 2 medium courgettes (zucchinis), thinly sliced Aim for about 1/8 inch slices for optimal crunch.
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor Sprinkle on before air frying if desired.
Instructions
Preparation
- Slice the courgettes thinly; aim for about 1/8 inch for that perfect crunch. A mandoline slicer can be helpful for uniformity.
- In a large bowl, toss the courgette slices with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well coated. If you prefer, sprinkle a bit of Parmesan cheese for added flavor.
Cooking
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place the seasoned courgette slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, working in batches if necessary.
- Air fry for about 10-15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- Once done, allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them plain or with your favorite dip!
Notes
For perfectly crispy courgette chips, let them sit with salt to draw out moisture before cooking, and keep an eye on them as they cook to avoid burning. Feel free to experiment with different seasonings like smoked paprika or cayenne.
