Method
 

How to Make Salt and Pepper Zucchini Chips
  1. Preheat your oven to 225°F (110°C). This low temperature allows the zucchini to dehydrate slowly, resulting in perfectly crispy chips.
  2. Slice the zucchinis into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick. This ensures they bake evenly; the thinner, the crunchier!
  3. Toss the zucchini slices in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Coat them evenly for the best flavor.
  4. Arrange the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Make sure they don't overlap, as this will prevent them from baking evenly.
  5. Bake for 2 hours, flipping halfway through. Look for a lovely golden color, which indicates they're achieving that perfect crunch.
  6. Cool the chips for at least 5 minutes before serving to enhance crispiness.
