Zucchini Chips Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the zucchini: Wash and dry the zucchinis, then slice them into thin, even rounds to ensure they bake evenly and become crispy.
  2. Toss with oil and seasoning: In a large bowl, gently toss the zucchini slices with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until all pieces are evenly coated.
  3. Add parmesan (optional): If using parmesan, sprinkle it over the zucchini slices and toss lightly to distribute the cheese evenly.
  4. Arrange for baking: Lay the zucchini slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
  5. Bake until crispy: Place the baking sheet in a preheated oven at 225°F (110°C) and bake for 1.5 to 2 hours, flipping the slices halfway through to ensure even crispiness.
  6. Cool and serve: Remove from the oven and let the zucchini chips cool completely on the baking sheet; they will crisp up further as they cool. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, slice the zucchini as thinly as possible using a mandoline.
  • Monitor the chips during baking as times may vary depending on your oven and thickness of slices.
  • Parmesan adds a savory flavor, but you can omit it for a vegan option or substitute with nutritional yeast.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days to maintain crispness.
