Crispy and delicious zucchini flatbread. Finally, my beloved zucchinis are returning! Those who have followed me for a while know that zucchinis are often featured among the recipes on my blog. So, I want to start immediately with the first recipe of this year: the thin and crispy zucchini flatbread. The recipe is really simple and quick, prepared in just a few minutes and straight into the oven. Many thin slices of zucchini immersed in a sort of batter made with few ingredients: water, flour, Parmesan, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. A crispy and tasty little focaccia perfect to serve as an appetizer, as a main course, or simply as a last-minute meal when we don’t know what to prepare. I also recommend not missing out on the recipe for Baked Gratin Zucchini and the recipe for Baked Zucchini Rolls. So let’s go to the kitchen and prepare together the crispy zucchini flatbread

How to prepare zucchini flatbread
Wash the zucchinis. Trim one end and use a mandoline to slice them into very thin slices.
Prepare the batter. Pour the flour into a bowl, gradually add the water while continuing to mix with a whisk.
Add a pinch of salt, the grated Parmesan, and 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. Mix to obtain a thick and creamy batter.
Add the zucchini slices to the batter and mix with a spatula to coat them with the batter.
Grease a rectangular baking tray; mine measures 8.66 x 11 inches. Pour the mixture inside, spreading it into a thin layer.
Dust the surface with cornmeal and finally drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil.
Bake the zucchini flatbread in a preheated oven at 375°F for 25 minutes.

Loredana’s Tips
If any zucchini focaccia is left over, store it in a container in the fridge for 1-2 days. You can also freeze it
For a more flavorful recipe, you can add 2.5 oz of thinly sliced speck to the preparation
Not just zucchinis; you can also add 2 medium onions sliced very thinly
