ZUCCHINI SPICE CAKE



Zucchini Spice Cake image

I created this recipe to use up a bumper crop of zucchini and to get my kids to eat more fruits and veggies without them knowing it. It is a dense cake reminiscent of carrot cake. I frequently add in an extra cup of stir-ins. Raisins, flake coconut, and walnuts or pecans are favorites.

Tips:

  • Use a mandoline or food processor to quickly and easily slice the zucchini. This will help you achieve uniform slices that will cook evenly.
  • Be sure to squeeze the excess moisture out of the zucchini before cooking. This will help prevent the cakes from becoming soggy.
  • Use a nonstick skillet or griddle to cook the cakes. This will help prevent them from sticking and burning.
  • Cook the cakes over medium heat until they are golden brown and cooked through. This will usually take about 4-5 minutes per side.
  • Serve the cakes immediately with your favorite sauce. The diavolo sauce in this recipe is a great option, but you could also use your favorite marinara sauce or pesto.

Conclusion:

Zucchini cakes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect zucchini cakes every time. So next time you have some zucchini on hand, be sure to give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
