Step-by-Step Instructions for Air Fryer Summer Squash
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 450°F (240°C).
  2. Wash and trim the ends of your fresh summer squash. Slice them into ¼ to ½ inch rounds.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced squash with a drizzle of olive oil (if using) and a sprinkle of granulated garlic, dried basil, oregano, salt, and cracked pepper. Toss until well-coated.
  4. Spread the seasoned squash evenly in the air fryer basket, ensuring they don’t overlap.
  5. Cook the squash in the preheated air fryer for 12-14 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
  6. Remove from air fryer and serve immediately, optionally topped with vegan parmesan and fresh chopped herbs.
