Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 medium zucchini sliced 0.25 inch thick
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt plus extra for drawing out moisture
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese optional, for extra flavor

Method
 

Steps
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Slice zucchini into 0.25-inch rounds. Place in a colander, sprinkle with 0.5 teaspoon salt, and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out moisture. Pat dry thoroughly with paper towels.
  3. In a large bowl, toss zucchini slices with olive oil, black pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange zucchini slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese if using.
  5. Bake for 18–22 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy at the edges.
  6. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. The crisps will firm up as they cool. Serve immediately.

Notes

For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the baking sheets. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days—though they're best enjoyed fresh!
