Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch round pie dish or baking dish with the olive oil.
Thinly slice the zucchini and tomatoes into even rounds, about 1/4-inch thick. Set them aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, all-purpose flour, low-fat milk, oregano, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Arrange the zucchini and tomato slices in overlapping layers in the prepared baking dish, starting from the outer edge and working towards the center.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the arranged vegetables, ensuring it seeps between the layers.
Sprinkle the top with grated parmesan cheese for a light, cheesy crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the egg mixture is set.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly for 5 minutes before slicing into wedges.
Serve warm as a light main dish or a side. Optionally, garnish with fresh oregano or a sprinkle of black pepper for extra flavor.
