Ingredients

• 2 medium zucchini
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Grate the zucchini using a box grater. Place the grated zucchini into a clean cheesecloth or a tea towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the squeezed zucchini, all-purpose flour, grated Parmesan cheese, olive oil, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until a dough forms.

Step 4

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out until it's about 1/8 inch thick.

Step 5

Use a sharp knife or a pizza cutter to cut the dough into small rectangles or squares.

Step 6

Place the cut crackers onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each piece.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and allow the crackers to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Store the zucchini crackers in an airtight container for up to a week. Enjoy as a snack or with your favorite dip!
