Easy Cheesy Zucchini Squares image

This reminds me of a quiche. It can be served as the entree or as appetizers. It is a great way to use zucchini. I found this recipe printed in our local newspaper that sited the source as "The New Southern Garden Cookbook..."

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 c grated zucchini, peeled and seeded if needed ( i leave some peeling on for color)
2 tsp kosher salt
1 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
3 large eggs
1/2 c vegetable oil
1 tsp high quality lemon pepper
2 tsp chopped fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dry
1 c finely chopped onion
2 c grated sharp cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven 350 degrees. Mist the inside of a 7x11 glass baking dish with cooking spray.
  • 2. Stir together the zucchini and salt in a colander and let drain 15 minutes. Press out the liquid; let drain another 15 minutes. Pick up small handfuls of zucchini and squeeze out as much liquid as possible; transfer to a small bowl.
  • 3. Whisk together flour and baking powder in a large bowl.
  • 4. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs until blended, then whisk in the oil, lemon pepper and thyme. Pour egg mixture into flour mixture and mix well.
  • 5. Use a rubber spatula to fold in the zucchini, onion and cheese. The batter will be very stiff. Scrape it into the prepared baking dish and press evenly into the corners.
  • 6. Bake until the top is golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool at least 5 minutes before serving. Refrigerate leftovers.
  • 7. I have reheated the leftovers the next day and it was just as good maybe even better!
