How to Make Freezer Bread Butter Zucchini Chips

  1. Wash and thinly slice 2 medium zucchini (about 2 cups sliced). Finely chop 1/2 small onion.
  2. In a large bowl, combine sliced zucchini, chopped onion, and 1 teaspoon salt. Toss gently to coat and let sit for at least 2 hours (or up to 4 hours) to draw out excess moisture.
  3. Drain the zucchini mixture thoroughly in a colander, but do not rinse.
  4. In a small, non-reactive saucepan, combine 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon celery seed, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  6. Pour the vinegar mixture over the drained zucchini mixture. Gently toss to ensure all zucchini slices are coated.
  7. Pack the zucchini chips into airtight freezer-safe containers, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace.
  8. Freeze for up to 6 months. To serve, let thaw slightly before enjoying. For extra crispiness, you can bake the chips at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes after thawing.
