Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium zucchini
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 0.25 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x9-inch (or similar-sized) baking dish with olive oil or cooking spray.
Wash and dry the zucchinis. Slice them into thin, even rounds about 1/4-inch thick.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, all-purpose flour, and baking powder until smooth and well combined.
Stir in the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Fold the sliced zucchini into the egg mixture, ensuring the zucchini is evenly coated.
Add the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese to the bowl, and give everything a gentle stir to combine evenly.
Pour the zucchini mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the top for added moisture and browning.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden and the mixture is set in the center.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired and serve warm. Enjoy!
