Table of Contents

Okay guys, thence hither nosotros are on solar daytime 2 of my official Zucchini Week hither on . These recipes all brand me excited to guide hold zucchini lying around inward the kitchen - instead of the commons "crap what the heck am I going to practise amongst this thing" line. Yesterday, I shared my Zucchini Tots, in addition to to stick amongst that kid-friendly theme, these zucchini pizzas were inward companionship for today! I was highly skeptical, simply was pleasantly surprised at how amazing they tasted!! They apace turned into i of my favorite zucchini recipes I've tried thence far this season. 

My sister-in-law is growing a garden inward my parents-in-law's backyard land they temporarily alive there. The zucchini found she has is going crazy in addition to she has been left amongst quite a few extra zucchini this summer. We guide hold happily been able to guide hold some off her hands! So thank y'all to that steady menstruation of zucchini, all the recipes this calendar week guide hold been made from her crop. I've noticed that she keeps them fresh past times wrapping them inward plastic wind in addition to storing them inward the fridge. Works wonders! 

To brand these super tardily zucchini boats, the zucchini is prepped the same exact agency nosotros did for the zucchini tots. Remember, the best agency to shred in addition to instruct all the juices out of the zucchini is to A) work the smallest holes on the cheese grater, in addition to B) work a cheese stuff or sparse towel to wring out the extra zucchini juices away from the zucchini over the sink. After these ii steps, nosotros dive correct into making the zucchini crust dough. All y'all necessitate to add together to the zucchini shreds is flour, parmesan, in addition to an egg (with a piddling salt, pepper, in addition to seasonings). EEEEEASY, right? Right! 

When y'all toss everything together, it should human face similar this (above), in addition to non guide hold every bit good much H2O inward the dough. The thinner y'all shred your zucchini in addition to parmesan, the better. 

This recipe makes ii 10in circle crusts, each is a skillful serving (of veggies, too!). Split the dough inward one-half in addition to flatten each circle out onto a parchment/silpat lined cookie sheet. 

Bake for 15-20 minutes at 450 degrees in addition to them flip them over (they should flip really tardily at this point) in addition to bake for some other five minutes. The crust gets prissy in addition to crispy inward the oven on the outside, simply has the same soft pump similar regular pizza dough on the inside. It makes the perfect base of operations for spreading on all your favorite pizza fixings.

I loved the agency these tasted. I was actually non expecting them to live that good, haha! Is that bad to say? Just beingness totally honest! When I told my hubby I was making zucchini pizza crust he near keeled over. But afterwards making it, I couldn't hold off to purchase to a greater extent than pizza sauce in addition to mozzarella to guide hold it again! I guide hold 3 to a greater extent than zucchini on my counter correct now, in addition to a pizza made amongst zucchini crust is calling my name!
