Prepare the Zucchini: Slice the zucchini into ½–¾ inch thick disks, then cut each piece in half. Trim and discard the ends so you’re left with even pieces that cook evenly in the air fryer.

Coat with Olive Oil: Place the sliced zucchini in a medium mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss well until each piece is lightly coated, this helps the coating stick and crisp up beautifully.

Add the Crunchy Coating: In a separate bowl, mix together the panko breadcrumbs, vegan Parmesan cheese, flour, and garlic powder. Sprinkle the mixture over the zucchini, then toss gently until everything is evenly coated.

Air Fry Until Crispy: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Arrange the zucchini pieces in a single, even layer in the air fryer basket. Air fry for about 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even crispiness. This step is what gives parmesan zucchini air fryer its signature golden crunch.

Serve and Enjoy: Once golden and crispy, remove the zucchini from the basket. Serve and enjoy this light and flavorful air fryer parmesan zucchini!
