Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 0 olive oil spray
Directions
Step 1
Begin by washing and drying the zucchini. Cut off the ends, and slice each zucchini into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.
Step 3
In another bowl, beat the egg along with the water to create an egg wash.
Step 4
Dip each zucchini slice into the egg wash, letting any excess drip off, then dredge it in the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere the coating.
Step 5
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Lightly coat the air fryer basket with olive oil spray to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Place the coated zucchini slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Step 7
Spray a light coat of olive oil over the top of the zucchini slices to help them crisp up.
Step 8
Air fry the zucchini at 400°F (200°C) for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 9
Carefully remove the zucchini from the air fryer and serve immediately with your favorite low carb dipping sauce.
