Garlic Parmesan Air Fryer Zucchini
If you’re looking for a super simple side dish to make in the air fryer, you’ve come to the right place. Garlic Parmesan Air Fryer Zucchini is the recipe for you!
Especially when you have garden fresh zucchini growing like crazy!
I made Garlic Parmesan Air Fryer Asparagus not too long ago and my eight year old LOVED it.
I’m not kidding, literally wanted seconds and thirds.
When I told him about this recipe he was pumped.
He loved it just as much as the asparagus.
Made me feel a little less guilty that he ate these since he was having box mac and cheese for his other side at dinner đŸ˜‰
How to make Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Zucchini
Simply slice two zucchini into 1/4 inch slices.
These were medium to small in size.
Toss them in a bowl with some olive oil, garlic powder, grated parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, plus a little kosher salt and pepper.
Then lay them flat in your air fryer. It’s perfectly fine if they overlap slightly.
Depending on your air fryer size, you may need to do them in two batches.
Sprinkle with a little more parmesan cheese over top.
Everyone loves some extra cheesy goodness, right?!
Next just set your air fryer for 12 minutes at 400 degrees.
Your kitchen will start to smell garlic-y and fabulous about 2 minutes in.
These are not meant to be super crispy.
The cheese has a nice crisp, but the zucchini slices themselves have a softer texture and are super flavorful.
Remove them with tongs or a fork and serve these Garlic Parmesan Air Fryer Zucchini with your favorite meal.
