Q: Is Zucchini supposed to be peeled?

No! I recommend never peeling Zucchini for any reason. The skin of a Zucchini is a big part of the nutrition you get from eating Zucchini. Zucchini does tend to come in from the garden rather dirty as it has been lying on the ground under the plant. I give my Zucchini a good scrub and rinse it in the sink before preparing it.

If you prefer to have a crisper texture to your Zucchini after baking, try placing your slices on a baking rack and then place it on a cooking sheet rather than using a baking dish.
