      How to Cut Zucchini for Making this Air Fryer Buttered Zucchini?

      You can cut zucchini according to your preference; it can be cubed or sliced. However, the best way to bring perfection to this recipe is to cut zucchini into thin slices. Make sure that the thickness should not be too reduced so that it will start looking like chips instead of a delicious side dish. The thickness should be moderate so that the juiciness and flavor will remain.

      How to Coat Zucchini Slices for Making This Buttered Zucchini?

      This recipe is quite simple, and you don’t need a lot of ingredients to make it. The coating material is white pepper and salt mixed with melted butter. You can also use any other spices or herbs of your choice for extra flavors. One thing to keep in mind is that your butter must be unsalted. You have to coat this mixture on zucchini slices.

      Experts’ Suggestions for Achieving Perfection

      Do Not Overcrowd: You must arrange them in a single layer in the air fryer’s basket. This is because vegetables release water when cooking in an air fryer, and it will get mixed in case of multiple layers or a crowded basket.

      Variations: You can try other flavors, such as cheese, garlic, and different sauces.

      Serving Options: The best way to serve them is with some sauce such as marinara, ketchup, mayo, or ranch.
