Notes

This is a very forgiving recipe.
  • Use almost any type of flour.  Rice and wholemeal work very well. You can make it without any flour (remove the baking powder as well),  however, the consistency will not be as firm, making it more difficult as finger food for a young child.
  • I like to make my zucchini slice in a loaf pan, you can use a slice tray or cake tin as well. The baking times may vary based on the size and depth of the dish
  • Keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days
  • Can Freeze for up to 3 months reheat it to piping hot in the microwave
  • Add cooked rice (½-1 Cup) if you want to add some extra carbohydrate
  • Use overgrown courgettes that are practically marrows!
  • Take out the bacon, and voila it's vegetarian
  • Change the vege! Grated Carrot, Finely Sliced Leek, Grated Pumpkin, Finley Sliced Pumpkin, peas, corn kernelswhatever you have will work
  • This is great finger food for young kids, even the toothless ones. My one-year-old has been loving it from around 7 months even though she is still a gummy shark
