Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

Step 5: Cool & Serve

Prep Time: 5 minutes | Cooking Time: 25 minutes | Total Time: 30 minutes

Mix in garlic powder, Italian seasoning, or grated Parmesan for extra flavor.

For extra crispiness, air-fry at 375°F (190°C) for 10–12 minutes.

Best enjoyed fresh, but you can reheat in the air fryer to bring back the crispiness.
