Today guestposting for me while I am in Europe is Sharon from The Homemade Mum – now Sharon has been teaching me alot about choosing the healthier options rather than going for the easy ones! She is also one of my bestfriends and made my Wedding dress for me last March!!
Dairy Free and Gluten Free Zucchini Slice
If you didn’t tell anyone that this was dairy free they would never know. The nutritional yeast flakes give it a cheesy flavour and they are also really good for you! This is fantastic straight from the oven or cold for a snack. A great lunchbox item for school.
Ingredients:
1 onion finely diced
4 rashers bacon finely diced
5 eggs
1 cup SR gluten free flour (if you only have plain then add the required amount of baking powder)
3 tbsp. nutritional yeast flakes (these are available from health food stores)
2 cups of grated zucchini
1/3 cup oil (I use grape seed oil so it is also nut free for school)
Instructions:
Gently fry the bacon and onion until soft. Put to one side to cool slightly.
In a large bowl add eggs and whisk lightly. Then mix in oil, yeast flakes, flour and zucchini. Add the precooked bacon and onion and mix well.
Pour into a well-greased pan (30cm by 20 cm) and cook on 175 degrees (fan forced) until firm to the touch and brown on the top (approx. 30 mins) this differs depending on your oven.
This is great fresh or can be cut into portion sizes and frozen. Ours never lasts long enough to be frozen!
Enjoy
