These air-fried zucchini chips offer a delightful alternative to traditional, heavier snacks. Each chip boasts a satisfying crunch, giving way to a tender zucchini center. The spice-infused coating creates a symphony of flavors that dance on your palate.

Imagine the subtle sweetness of zucchini enhanced by savory notes, a hint of warmth, and the sharpness of aged cheese. The preparation involves slicing fresh zucchini into delicate rounds, each destined to become a crispy delight. These slices are then treated to a bath of beaten egg, ensuring the spiced coating adheres beautifully.

The magic truly happens when these moistened rounds are generously enveloped in a mix of ground almonds, cheddar, parmesan, chili powder, and garlic powder. This careful coating process guarantees that every chip is imbued with the aromatic spices and savory cheesy goodness. Achieving the perfect crispness requires a little patience.

Arranging the coated zucchini slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer ensures that each chip receives ample air circulation, resulting in an even, golden-brown finish. You may need to work in batches, but the end result is well worth the effort. The aroma that fills your kitchen as these chips transform is simply irresistible.

The recipe includes a touch of chili powder, providing a gentle warmth that complements the other flavors. Feel free to customize the level of heat to your preference, adding more or less chili powder as desired. Whether you enjoy them as a guilt-free snack, a flavorful side dish, or a creative appetizer, these air-fried zucchini chips are sure to impress.

They're perfect for sharing with friends and family, or simply savoring on your own as a moment of pure culinary bliss.
