Ingredients
  

Group: Ingredients
  • 2 medium zucchinis, grated (about 1 pound)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • ½ tsp. baking soda
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ¼ tsp. black pepper
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup chopped fresh herbs (like parsley and basil)
  • 1 cup sweet corn (fresh or frozen)
  • ½ cup finely diced onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Olive oil, for greasing

Equipment

  • Box grater or food processor
  • Large mixing bowl
  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Start by grating the zucchinis using a box grater or a food processor. After grating, place the zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out any excess moisture.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until all dry ingredients are mixed evenly.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs until frothy, then add the ricotta cheese, Parmesan, and chopped herbs. Mix until creamy and well combined.
  4. Gently incorporate the grated zucchini, sweet corn, diced onion, and minced garlic into the wet mixture. Then, fold this blend into the dry mixture using a spatula until just combined.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil, then pour in the batter, spreading it evenly. Bake for about 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set.
  6. Once baked, allow the zucchini slice to cool slightly before cutting it into squares.

Notes
