How to Make Baked Grated Zucchini
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Wash 2 medium zucchini, leaving the skins on. Grate them using a hand grater or food processor.
- Place the grated zucchini in a colander and generously salt it. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes to draw out excess moisture. Then, thoroughly press out the moisture with paper towels.
- Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Transfer the grated zucchini to the prepared baking dish.
- Dot the zucchini with 2 tablespoons of butter, cut into small pieces, distributing evenly.
- Bake uncovered for 15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and carefully pour off any liquid that has collected in the bottom of the dish.
- Stir in 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
- Return to the oven and bake for another 5-10 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender and the cheese is melted and lightly golden brown.
