How to bake zucchini chips
- Preheat the oven: First, be sure to fully preheat the oven to make sure the chips come out crispy enough. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit, then prepare two sheet pans with oil spray. You can also use parchment paper in place of the oil spray.
- Season the zucchini with flavor: Next, divide the prepared sliced zucchini evenly among the baking sheets and sprinkle the slices with garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss the zucchini chips together with the oil and seasonings to make sure everything is fully covered. Avoid overlapping the chips or they will not be crispy.
- Bake: Finally, lightly spray the zucchini with cooking oil and top with grated parmesan cheese. Bake the zucchini chips in the oven for fifteen to seventeen minutes until lightly golden and crispy. Enjoy with your favorite sauces and dips!
Tips from my kitchen
- Evenly slice the zucchini chips so you have even and balanced chips. You can use a mandolin slicer.
- Avoid overlapping the zucchini slices on the baking sheets so they do not get soggy and moist.
- I recommend you let the zucchini slices sit for 5 minutes. Using a paper towel, place over the zucchini to remove some of the moisture that comes out of the zucchini.
- Instead of baking your chips in the oven, you can try air fryer zucchini chips.
- For vegan zucchini chips, use vegan parmesan cheese or skip it altogether.

Common Questions
If you are running into moisture issues with your zucchini chips, then you can elevate the slices on a wire baking rack on top of the sheet pan for the oven.
If your zucchini chips are soggy, then they may have not been baked in the oven long enough. Be sure to bake the zucchini chips until crispy and golden for the best flavors. Depending on your oven, this could take seventeen or twenty minutes.
You can use a vegan-friendly parmesan cheese alternative. There are many options now out there that are dairy-free.
No, you do not need to peel the zucchini. The skin is edible so just make sure you wash it well.
