Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. (2 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Pour ranch dressing into a second bowl. Combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder in a third bowl. (5 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

Working in batches to avoid overcrowding, dredge zucchini slices in the flour mixture, shaking off excess. Dip into the ranch dressing, allowing excess to drip off. Then, press both sides into the bread crumb mixture to ensure a complete coating. Place the breaded zucchini slices in a single layer in the prepared air fryer basket. (15 minutes)

04

Step
6 mins

Air-fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5 to 6 minutes per batch. Repeat with remaining zucchini slices. (20 minutes)

For extra crispy chips, consider using panko bread crumbs instead of regular bread crumbs.
Adjust seasoning to your preference. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the breadcrumb mixture for a spicy kick.
Ensure zucchini slices are uniformly thin to promote even cooking.
Serve immediately for the best texture. Pairs perfectly with extra ranch dressing or your favorite dipping sauce.

    Next time, I'm going to try it with other vegetables like eggplant or yellow squash.

    The ranch flavor is a game-changer! So much better than plain zucchini chips.

    My husband is obsessed with these. We make them every week now.

  • Cheyenne Purdy

    Make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer, or they won't get crispy. Learned that the hard way!
