Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 6 large eggs
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grease a 9-inch pie dish or quiche pan with the butter to prevent sticking.
Grate the zucchinis using a box grater, place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel, and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and heavy cream until well combined.
Add the grated cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to the egg mixture. Stir to combine.
Fold the drained zucchini into the egg and cheese mixture until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pie dish, spreading it out evenly.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and lightly golden on top.
Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your Keto Zucchini Quiche warm or at room temperature.
