Air Fryer Zucchini Ingredients:

Air Fryer Liners

This recipe would be quite messy without an air fryer liner. You can purchase liners for most air fryers online that are some of the most common basket size liners. However, you can use parchment paper that is cut to fit your specific air fryer if you prefer.

  • Use a liner for easy clean up.
