For most people here in the USA, it is the peak of zucchini season and baking zucchini chips in an Air fryer is easy to prepare and healthy, low-carb, ready in only 12 minutes. The perfect snack to curb your craving for deep-fried potato chips, delicious served as an appetizer with your favorite dip.

I first sliced the zucchini in equal sizes using a Mandoline Slicer, you can also use a sharp knife making thin slices about 1/4 inch thick. You can substitute yellow squash for zucchini.

I added nutritional yeast flakes for a cheesy flavor, yeast flakes are usually sold at the health food store or online on Amazon.

In a large bowl combine, almond flour, nutritional yeast flakes, Italian seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt.
