How to Make Zucchini Flats

  1. Preheat oven to 230°C (450°F).
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté 1/2 cup finely chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup water, 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 2 cups all-purpose flour until just combined. The batter will be quite liquid.
  4. Gently fold in 2 cups thinly sliced zucchini and the sautéed onion mixture.
  5. Line a 20cm x 30cm swiss roll pan with baking paper and lightly grease with cooking spray or olive oil.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly.
  7. Drizzle the top with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, sprinkle with an additional 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon dried thyme.
  8. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the top is crispy.
  9. Let cool slightly before slicing into large squares and serving.
