Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium zucchini
- 5 large eggs
- 0.5 cups almond flour
- 1 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.25 cups heavy cream
- 0.5 cups bacon, diced
- 2 stalks green onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish (approximately 9x9 inches) with olive oil and set it aside.
Grate the zucchinis and place them in a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible to avoid a soggy slice.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined.
Add the almond flour, heavy cream, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the eggs. Mix well to form a smooth batter.
Stir in the shredded zucchini, shredded cheddar cheese, diced bacon, and chopped green onions. Mix until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out to form an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the slice is set in the center.
Remove from the oven and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing into portions.
Serve warm or at room temperature. This slice can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated as needed.
