Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prep the zucchini
Grate the zucchinis and squeeze out the excess water using a clean kitchen towel. This step ensures a crisp and firm texture.
Step 2: Mix it up
In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini, oats, eggs, cheeses, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano. Mix until everything is well blended.
Step 3: Shape and bake
Grease a baking tray with olive oil. Spread the mixture evenly (like a pizza base) and press it down gently.
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 25–30 minutes, or until golden and slightly crisp around the edges.
Step 4: Optional – Add toppings
For an extra “pizza feel,” top it with tomato sauce, extra cheese, or your favorite veggies. Return to the oven for 5–7 minutes until the cheese melts perfectly.
Step 4: Tips for Success
✅ Remove moisture well — too much water from the zucchini will make it soggy.
✅ Add spice — try chili flakes or paprika for a kick.
✅ Make it gluten-free — oats keep it wholesome without flour.
