Zucchini in the air fryer
Air fry zucchini at 400°F (200°C) for 8 to 12 minutes. That is for sliced, about 1/2 inch (1 cm) thick, in a preheated basket air fryer; the calculator above fits it to your weight, your air fryer and how you like it. Shake the basket halfway, so every piece crisps.

Questions
What temperature should I air fry zucchini at?
400°F (200°C) for sliced, for 8 to 12 minutes. Pick another cut in the calculator and the heat and time follow it.
Should I shake the basket?
Yes, halfway through, so every piece crisps evenly. Start the timer and it tells you when.
How do I check zucchini for doneness?
When it is golden at the edges and tender inside. Start checking at the low end of the time.
How much can I cook at once?
One layer, with a little room between the pieces, so the hot air reaches them all. Piled higher, food steams instead of crisping; the calculator splits a bigger amount into batches.
Do I need to preheat the air fryer?
These times assume a preheated air fryer, which takes about 3 to 5 minutes. From cold, choose "No, from cold" and 3 minutes are added.
