Zucchini Slice

This is a simple recipe. It’s a great idea to make a batch, cut them into bite size squares and leave them in an airtight container in the fridge. That way if I’m feeling peckish I can quickly grab a slice or two. Zucchini slice is versatile, it’s great for a savoury morning tea as well as evening gathering.

You can leave the bacon out if you need to. Use this standard recipe to try your own variation. The possibilities are endless. I have successfully substituted the SR flour for a gluten free SR flour. Try using any leftover batter to make zucchini fritters for breakfast.
