ZUCCHINI AND POTATO CASSEROLE IN AIR FRYER, EASY AND LIGHT
The zucchini casserole is a light dish because it contains no dairy, cooked in an air fryer.
These days we’re saying goodbye to the oven; our air fryer takes its place, very useful as it cooks like a static oven but much faster.
This recipe is really light as it contains no DAIRY but only grated cheese aged 30 months, perfect for feeling light.
To combine everything, I used eggs with water 🙂
So let’s see how I made this perfect casserole to bring under the umbrella!

Ingredients
Small pan for air fryer
- 2 zucchini
- 4 potatoes
- 3/4 cup grated Parmesan (aged 30 months)
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1/4 cup water (or milk if you prefer)
- 9 oz chicken breast (ground)
- 1 shallot
Tools
- Silicone Baking Molds for Air Fryer
- Mandoline
- Pan
Steps
Note, you can lightly boil the potatoes in hot water for a few minutes if you want.
First, I cleaned the zucchini and potatoes well, peeled the latter, and then sliced them all with the mandoline, about 0.2 inches each.
I didn’t grill the zucchini to make it faster, but if you prefer, you can do it.
I chopped half a shallot and put it in a pan with a drizzle of oil, added the ground meat, and let it cook, stirring well for about ten minutes; if needed, pour a little water.
In a bowl, I beat the eggs adding salt and water (milk if you prefer).
In the baking pan, I layered as follows: zucchini on the bottom, potatoes, a handful of Parmesan, meat, and a drizzle of beaten eggs; I continued to layer gradually until all the ingredients were finished.
To prevent the casserole surface from burning quickly, I put a piece of parchment paper on top; cooked for about 25/30 minutes at 356°F.
Your ZUCCHINI AND POTATO CASSEROLE IN AIR FRYER, EASY AND LIGHT is ready to be enjoyed without guilt 😉
Storage
It keeps in the fridge for three days, or you can freeze it whole before or after cooking, or in ready-to-eat portions.
