Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams zucchini
- 1 cup self-raising flour
- 1 medium onion
- 150 grams bacon
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 5 large eggs
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch (23x33 cm) baking dish or line it with baking paper.
Grate the zucchini using a box grater or food processor. Squeeze out excess moisture by placing the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and wringing it out over the sink.
Finely chop the onion and dice the bacon.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs until slightly frothy.
Add in the grated zucchini, chopped onion, diced bacon, self-raising flour, grated cheddar cheese, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Stir everything together until well combined. Ensure that there are no flour lumps remaining.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow the zucchini slice to cool in the dish for about 10 minutes.
Cut into squares or slices and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
