🥒 Easy Zucchini Flatbread with Herbs
📝 Ingredients:
- 2 medium zucchini (grated)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (parsley, dill, or cilantro – finely chopped)
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon chili flakes (optional)
- ½ teaspoon baking powder (optional, for softer texture)
👩🍳 Instructions:
- Prep the zucchini
Grate the zucchini and sprinkle with salt. Let it sit for 10 minutes, then squeeze out as much water as possible using a clean cloth. - Make the dough
In a bowl, combine squeezed zucchini, flour, garlic, herbs, olive oil, black pepper, and chili flakes. Mix until a soft dough forms.
(Add a little more flour if the dough feels sticky.) - Shape the flatbreads
Divide into small portions and roll each into thin flatbreads using a rolling pin. - Cook
Heat a pan over medium heat. Cook each flatbread for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden spots appear. Lightly brush with olive oil if desired.
🍽️ Serving Ideas:
- Serve warm with yogurt dip, garlic sauce, or hummus
- Pair with soup or salad for a light meal
- Add cheese inside for a stuffed version
💡 Tips:
- Squeezing out water from zucchini is key—otherwise dough gets soggy
- You can add grated cheese (like mozzarella or feta) for extra flavor
- Gluten-free flour also works with slight adjustments
