Our garden zucchini are going crazy… and I’m loving it. I decided to try out making some zucchini chips as a healthy snack.
And, they are my new favorite snack.
Zucchini Chips
Ingredients
- Large zucchini(s)
- Olive Oil Spray
- Sea Salt
- Additional seasoning, if desired {garlic, Italian…}*
Directions
Using a mandolin slicer, slice your zucchini until they are 1/8-1/4 C in thickness. If you’ve ever made pickles, you’ll want them just slightly thicker than pickle slices.
Toss the zucchini coins in a large bowl. Spray with olive oil and toss until well coated. Add the sea salt and seasonings and toss again.
Arrange the zucchini slices into your dehydrator. Dehydrate for ~4 hours with the temperature set at 160 degrees.
Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week… they might last longer, but we have eaten all ours in that timeframe so that’s all I can recommend.
If you don’t have a dehydrator, lay out your zucchini coins on a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper. Place in your oven, set at the lowest oven temp and bake for anywhere between 1-5 hours until zucchini are dehydrated!
Enjoy!
*After trying a few combos, I prefer just sea salt. But, that’s just me. I like just plain vanilla ice cream too.

Are they crispy or like dried apples, kind of chewy? They looks so pretty!
They are crispy! Just like a chip.
YUM! i've just eaten it raw - but this would certainly keep longer!

What a neat way to eat zucchini, I will have to try these.
What perfect timing! My husband brought home a zucchini from a congregation member today and I had no idea what to do with it. Now I know!
These look great! What an awesome snack!
Hmm! Very interesting! Zucchini is one of those.. "I like it..but I don't love it" type veggies for me..so I often struggle with what to do with it beyond stir fry, soup, and zucchini bread! This just might be something I have to try!
