- Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.

- Continue the process with any remaining zucchini slices.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 2-3 minutes to restore the crunch.
