Zucchini Cornbread Casserole
Ingredients:
- 2 medium zucchinis, grated
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cornmeal (you can find keto-friendly cornmeal or use a substitute)
- 1/4 cup melted butter or olive oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch casserole dish or similar-sized baking dish.
- Prepare Zucchini: Grate the zucchinis using a box grater or food processor. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out the excess moisture. This step is important to avoid a soggy casserole.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, keto-friendly cornmeal, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter (or oil), sour cream, and green onions (if using).
- Combine: Add the grated zucchini to the wet ingredients and mix well. Then, slowly fold in the dry ingredients until fully combined. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese if desired.
- Bake: Pour the mixture into your prepared casserole dish and spread it out evenly. Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Serve: Let it cool for a few minutes before cutting into squares. Serve warm and enjoy!
