Description

A delicious low-carb alternative to traditional breadsticks, made with grated zucchini, cheese, and a blend of seasonings. Perfect as an appetizer or snack.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups grated zucchini (about 1 large zucchini)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup almond flour (or all-purpose flour)
  • 1/2 cup additional shredded mozzarella for topping (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease.
  2. Grate the zucchini and place in a clean kitchen towel. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 10 minutes. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the drained zucchini, eggs, 1 cup mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, pepper, and almond flour. Mix until well combined.
  4. Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until set and lightly golden.
  6. Remove from oven and sprinkle with additional mozzarella if desired. Return to oven for 5 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Let cool slightly, then cut into breadstick shapes. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
