ALL ABOUT ZUCCHINI

Today we are using zucchini in our air fryer to make air fryer zucchini coins! Who doesn’t love a good fried zucchini recipe? YUM!

Zucchinis are part of the squash family. Squash is separated into two categories: winter squash and summer squash. Zucchini falls into the summer squash category.

Typically, summer squashes have a higher water content than winter squash and their skin is thin and edible.

Zucchini plants are pretty popular for home gardeners. There is a running joke that you can’t look away from a zucchini plant because zucchini grows so fast.

It almost seems like they can double in size overnight. While that isn’t quite accurate, they can grow fast during the summer!

HOW EASY IS IT TO USE THE AIR FRYER?

Still not convinced about an airfryer? When I say it’s super simple, it’s simple. You literally set the temp, figure out the time, and wait for that food to be done.

Is there any other appliance out there that is as simple as that? And clean-up? A total breeze. After you are finished making your air fryer zucchini coins, simply take out the inner air fryer basket, dump it and wash. Then repeat with the outer basket.

AIR FRYER SUCCESS EACH AND EVERY TIME

I’ve owned my air fryer now for a while, and I have to be honest…I’ve yet to find a recipe that I don’t love. And did I mention how simple it is?

To say I’m a creature of habit is an understatement. I love being able to cook a meal and know with confidence that it’s going to taste amazing each and every time.

With the Air Fryer, I absolutely have no doubts. I know that from the moment I press start, to the moment that I remove the food from the machine, it will be cooked to perfection each and every time.

REMOVE MOISTURE BEFORE AIR FRYING

Zucchini has quite a bit of moisture in it. So we need to remove some of that moisture before we fry up our air fryer zucchini slices. To do this, you are going to lay the zucchini slices flat on a baking sheet.

Then sprinkle the slices with some salt, let rest for a few minutes, then slip and repeat. We outlined this process in our Gluten Free Eggplant Parmesan recipe.

DIPPING SAUCE FOR ZUCCHINI COINS

You don’t need to dip them into a sauce but I like to dip the zucchini coins I love to dip them into ranch, you can also use sour cream or salsa! YUM!

HOW TO MAKE ZUCCHINI CHIPS

Yes! Absolutely you can. You want to just slice them a little thinner to change them from coins to chips. Or cut them into long wedges and call them air fryer zucchini fries instead.
