• 1½ cups panko breadcrumbs

• 2 teaspoons onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• ½ teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
• 2 medium-sized zucchini each zucchini weighed 7 ounces
• 1 large egg

INSTRUCTIONS:

For the Breading:

1. In a medium-sized bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, onion powder, Italian seasoning, kosher salt, and pepper. Stir to ensure all ingredients are well mixed. Set this breadcrumb mixture aside.

Preparing the Zucchini: 2. Start by slicing off and discarding the ends of the zucchini.

3. Slice the zucchini into thin 1/8-inch round slices. (Adjust thickness based on your preference and consider altering cooking time accordingly)

For the Egg Mixture: 4. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg and half and half until fully combined.

Prepping for Air Frying: 5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to make the breading process easier.

6. Dip each zucchini slice into the egg mixture, ensuring they’re well-coated.
7. Next, dip the egg-coated zucchini into the breadcrumb mixture, making sure the slices are evenly coated.
8. Place the breaded zucchini slices on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat this process for the remaining zucchini slices.

Using the Air Fryer: 9. Remove the air fryer basket and generously spray it with non-stick cooking spray.

10. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F for 3 minutes.
11. Lay the breaded zucchini slices in a single layer inside the air fryer basket.
12. Spray the breaded zucchini slices generously with non-stick cooking spray.
13. Air fry for 9-10 minutes, or longer if your zucchini slices are thicker. (Consider cooking in batches if needed)
14. Serve the air-fried zucchini while it’s still hot.
