Need something to do with all of that fresh zucchini in your garden? I highly recommend you try this simple recipe for homemade zucchini chips! Simple to make and baked in the oven, these are a light, fun snack!
Ingredients
- ½ lb zucchini sliced into thin, ⅛” thick slices
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon Kosher salt plus more to taste, as needed
- ¼ teaspoon Freshly cracked black pepper
- ⅛-¼ teaspoon Smoked paprika optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 225 degrees Fahrenheit and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Slice your zucchini and thoroughly pat slices dry with paper towel.
- In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, salt, black pepper, and paprika, if using.
- Toss zucchini slices in olive oil and stir until all slices are coated with olive oil.
- Transfer zucchini slices to prepared cookie sheets. Be sure to space evenly over baking sheet so that no slices are overlapping.
- Transfer both baking sheets to the oven and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes to 2 hours. Once your slices have been baking for 1 hour and 15 minutes, be sure to check them every 10 minutes, so they do not burn. Zucchini chips will be golden brown and crisp when finished.
