Easy Oven-Baked Zucchini Chips

Step 1

Preheat oven to 225 degrees Fahrenheit. Line two large baking sheets (I used two 17" baking sheets) with silicon baking mats or parchment paper.

Step 2

Slice your zucchini on a mandolin. Mine had 1, 2, or 3 for thickness and I used 2.

Step 3

After you slice your zucchini, place the slices on a sheet of paper towels and take another paper towel and sandwich the zucchini slices and press on them. This helps draw out the liquid so it'll cook a bit faster.

Step 4

Line up the zucchini slices on the prepared baking sheet tightly next to each other in a straight line, making sure not to overlap them.

Step 5

In a small bowl, pour your olive oil in and take a pastry brush to brush the olive oil on each zucchini slice.

Step 6

Sprinkle salt throughout the baking sheet. Do NOT over-season, in fact, it's better to use less salt initially because the slices will shrink; so if you over-season, it'll be way too salty! You can always add more later.

Step 7

Bake for 2+ hours until they start to brown and aren't soggy and are crisp.

Step 8

Let cool before removing and serving.

Step 9

Keep in an airtight container for no more than 3 days.
