Notes
Storing: Zucchini cooked in the air fryer is best served immediately. However, if you have leftovers, they can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours. Freezing is not recommended.
Reheating: To reheat, add the air fried zucchini back to the air fryer and cook on 400°F for about 60-90 seconds or until warmed through.
