Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Yellow squash
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Wash the squash thoroughly and pat dry with a paper towel.
Cut the squash into 1/4-inch thick slices.
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Add the squash slices to the bowl and toss them gently to ensure every slice is evenly coated with the oil and spice mixture.
Place the squash slices in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are in a single layer for even cooking. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Air fry the squash for 14-18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Once the squash is golden and crispy, remove them from the air fryer and allow them to cool slightly on a plate before serving.
Serve the air-fried squash hot as a side dish or a healthy snack.
