Wash the squash and pat it dry. Then, use a Chef’s knife to cut the squash in half lengthwise.
Use a spoon to scoop out and discard the seeds.
Then, turn the squash cut side down on a cutting board and slice it into 1-inch slices. Place the sliced squash in a medium mixing bowl.
Toss the squash with the coconut oil and transfer it to the basket of your air fryer.
Set the temperature to 400 degrees F for 15 minutes, or until the squash has started to brown.
Remove the squash from the air fryer and transfer it to a serving bowl.
Toss with salt and pepper, and serve warm.

Store any leftovers in a tightly sealed airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Re-heat before serving.
