Instructions

Preheat your oven to 225°F (110°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper
Slice the zucchini into even rounds of about 1/8-inch thickness
Lay the slices on a kitchen towel, sprinkle with salt, and let sit for 10 minutes to remove excess moisture
Pat the slices dry with another towel and toss them in a bowl with olive oil and spices
Arrange the slices in a single layer on the baking sheets without overlapping
Bake for 90 minutes to 2 hours, checking after 60 minutes and rotating the pans
Once golden brown and dry to the touch, remove from the oven and cool for at least 10 minutes

Notes

Make sure to pat the zucchini dry to avoid sogginess.

You can use an air fryer, set to 300°F for 10-15 minutes for a quicker option.
