1. Can I use fresh garlic instead of garlic powder?

You can omit it or substitute with grated Parmesan for a cheesy flavor.
3. How do I prevent the zucchini from becoming soggy?
Ensure the zucchini is cut into uniform pieces and not overcrowded in the air fryer.

Yes, bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
