How To Make Air Fryer Keto Zucchini Fries
Making these Parmesan zucchini fries is super easy! First, slice 2 zucchini into fries shape – you don’t even need to peel them! The way I do it is first I cut off and discard the zucchini stems, then cut zucchini in half, then in half again, and then cut into shape of fries.
Next, put zucchini fries in a bowl and toss with olive oil, Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning (see the printable recipe card on the bottom of this article for the exact ingredient quantities).
Put zucchini fries in the air fryer basket, set the temperature to 400F and the time for 10 minutes and press Start. When it’s done cooking, take out these browned delicious zucchini fries and enjoy them while they are hot!
Of course, feel free to sprinkle them with extra Parmesan cheese before serving. You just can’t go wrong with more Parmesan :) Enjoy!
