Air Fryer Zucchini and Squash

This quick and easy recipe for Air Fryer Zucchini and Squash is lightly seasoned and drizzled with olive oil. In less than 20 minutes you can have perfectly cooked, tender, zucchini and summer squash!

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups sliced zucchini and yellow squash (round slices, cut in half)
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon onion powder
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for 3 minutes.
  2. Make the seasoning blend by mixing the dried herbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
  3. Transfer the sliced zucchini and squash to a medium-sized mixing bowl.  Drizzle the summer squash with olive oil and season with the seasoning blend.  Mix the zucchini and squash well to evenly distribute the olive oil and seasoning.
