THIN, CRUNCHY AND TASTY ZUCCHINI AND ONION FLATBREAD

Crunchy and delicious zucchini and onion flatbread. I’ve recently gotten quite fixated on vegetable flatbreads. Thin, crunchy, and tasty, yet extremely easy and quick to prepare. Just a few simple ingredients, and the vegetables aren’t pre-cooked but simply grated or thinly sliced and added to a light batter. A thin layer baked in the oven that becomes crunchy and delicious. Today, I want to share with you the recipe for a delicious zucchini flatbread to which I’ve also added an onion for a more pronounced and tasty flavor. It can be prepared in just a few minutes and is the perfect solution for lunch, dinner, or even an idea for an aperitif with friends now that the days are long and the terraces become the most beautiful area of the house. Have I already convinced you to try it? Let’s run into the kitchen and prepare an irresistible zucchini flatbread together.

Loredana’s Tips

For a gluten-free recipe, you can substitute white flour with chickpea flour or rice flour

If you have leftover Flatbread, store it in a container in the fridge for 2 days or you can also freeze it. You just need to reheat it for a few minutes in the hot oven or microwave
