Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients

2 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced (skin on)

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tbsp almond flour

1 tsp garlic powder

½ tsp onion powder

½ tsp smoked paprika (optional, for flavor)

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp black pepper

1 tbsp olive oil (or avocado oil)

Equipment

Sharp knife or mandoline slicer
Large mixing bowl
Baking sheet
Parchment paper
Oven
Cooling rack

Method

Preheat Oven –

Set oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Slice Zucchini –

Using a mandoline or sharp knife, cut zucchini into thin, even slices (about 1/8 inch thick).

Prepare Coating –

In a bowl, mix Parmesan, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Toss Zucchini –

Place zucchini slices in a large bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and toss to coat.

Coat with Mixture –

Dredge each zucchini slice in the Parmesan-almond mixture, ensuring an even coat.

Arrange on Baking Sheet –

Lay slices in a single layer on the prepared sheet. Avoid overlapping.

Bake Until Crispy –

Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crisp.

Cool & Serve –

Let chips cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. They’ll crisp up even more as they cool.

Notes

Slice zucchini as thinly as possible for maximum crunch.
For extra crispiness, sprinkle lightly with salt after slicing and let sit for 10 minutes. Pat dry to remove excess moisture before coating.
Adjust seasonings to taste—add chili flakes for spice or ranch seasoning for a fun twist.
