Description
These crispy zucchini chips are baked to perfection with a simple blend of olive oil, sea salt, garlic powder, and optional parmesan. A healthier alternative to traditional chips, they’re full of flavor, easy to make, and perfectly crunchy!
Ingredients
-
2 medium zucchinis
-
1–2 tablespoons of olive oil (or avocado oil for a healthier option)
-
½ teaspoon of sea salt
-
½ teaspoon of garlic powder
-
½ teaspoon of smoked paprika (optional for extra flavor)
-
¼ teaspoon of black pepper
-
Grated parmesan (optional for added flavor and crunch)
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
-
Slice the zucchinis thinly, about 1/8 inch thick, ensuring even slices for consistent crispiness.
-
Toss zucchini slices in a bowl with olive oil, salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper.
-
Lay the zucchini slices on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, avoiding overlap.
-
Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chips are golden brown and crispy.
-
For extra flavor, sprinkle grated Parmesan on top before serving.
-
Let the chips cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
-
Ensure the zucchini slices are thin and even for the crispiest result.
-
For an extra healthy option, you can use avocado oil instead of olive oil.
-
If you like a bit of heat, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper.
-
Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet to avoid sogginess.
