PARMESAN ROASTED ZUCCHINI
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Trim the stem end of the zucchini, cut them in half lengthwise, and scoop out a small channel of seeds with a regular teaspoon. Place the zucchini in one layer on a sheet pan, brush generously all over with olive oil, and turn the zucchini cut side down. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and roast for 12 to 15 minutes, until just tender but still firm when tested with the tip of a small paring knife.
- Meanwhile, make the bread crumbs. In a medium bowl, combine the garlic, parsley, basil, Parmesan, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add the panko and 3 1/2 tablespoons of oil and mix well.
- Turn the zucchini cut side up and spoon a heaping tablespoon of the panko mixture evenly on each zucchini. Bake for another 8 to 10 minutes, until the panko is crispy. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Brush a standard 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with butter and dust with flour, tapping out excess.
- Place zucchini in the center of a clean kitchen towel or a few layers of cheesecloth. Gather into a tight bundle and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible; set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, pepper, baking powder, baking soda, and poppy seeds, 30 seconds. Add 1 cup cheese; toss to evenly coat in flour mixture. In another bowl, whisk together butter, eggs, sour cream, and zucchini until smooth. Make a well in flour mixture and pour zucchini mixture into it. Stir together just until combined and no dryflour remains (do not overmix). Transfer to prepared pan. Top evenly with remaining 1/2 cup cheese.
- Bake until a tester inserted into center comes out clean, 1 hour to 1 hour, 10 minutes. Let cool in pan 10 minutes, then transfer loaf to a wire rack and let cool completely. Bread can be stored at room temperature, wrapped in parchment-lined foil, up to 3 days.
Tips:
- Choose fresh zucchini. Look for zucchinis that are firm and have bright green skin. Avoid zucchinis that are bruised or have blemishes.
- Grate the zucchini with a box grater. This will help to release the zucchini's moisture and make it easier to mix with the other ingredients.
- Squeeze out the excess moisture from the grated zucchini. This will help to prevent the bread from becoming too wet.
- Use a combination of all-purpose flour and bread flour. This will give the bread a light and fluffy texture.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bread tough.
- Bake the bread in a loaf pan that has been greased and floured. This will help to prevent the bread from sticking to the pan.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.
Conclusion:
Zucchini and Parmesan bread is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up fresh zucchini and is a healthy and flavorful alternative to traditional white bread. This bread is also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables!
