Can these be done in an airfryer??
Please and thank you.
Best Recipe Box says
Definitely. We have another Crispy Crusty Air Fryer Zucchini Fries recipe in our Air Fryer Low Carb ebook & we all loved them. Air Fry at 400°F for 8-10 minutes. After cooking for 5 minutes, gently flip the zucchini fries and then continue cooking for 3-5 minutes or until golden.
