*Nutrition info is for the crust only, optional seasonings and olive oil and flour for the pan are excluded as well
Ingredients
olive oil and flour for the pan
2 cups packed grated zucchini
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup grated mozzarella
1/2 cup grated parmesan
optional: pinches of basil, marjoram, or other herbs
2 T olive oil
Topping suggestions: extra olive oil
extra cheese
2-3 large garlic cloves, sliced
sauteed mushrooms
sliced olives
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Generously oil a 10 inch pie pan and coat lightly with flour. Combine zucchini, eggs, flour, mozzarella, parmesan, herbs and 1 T olive oil in a bowl and mix well. Spread into the prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown. About halfway through the baking, brush with the remaining T of olive oil. Remove from oven. When it has cooled for about 10 minutes, use a spatula to loosen the crust from the pan, so it won't break later. Top with your favorite pizza items and bake at 400 degrees until heated through.
Makes 4 servings.
