Flatbread Ingredients



Filling Ingredients






Instructions
Step 1
Begin by grating the **zucchini** using a box grater. Make sure to use a **small zucchini** for optimal texture. After grating, gently squeeze out any excess moisture to prevent the flatbread from becoming soggy.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini with the **all-purpose flour**, **eggs**, and **salt**. Mix everything together until you achieve a uniform consistency that resembles **thick sour cream**. This mixture will form the base for your flatbread.
Step 3
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a few drops of **vegetable oil**. Once the oil is hot, pour in the zucchini mixture to form the **flatbread**. Cook until both sides are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Make sure to flip carefully to avoid breaking the flatbread.
Step 4
Once cooked, spread a layer of **ricotta cheese** on top of the flatbread. Next, arrange the **cucumber**, **spinach**, **cooked shrimp**, and **young peas** over the ricotta. These fresh ingredients create a delightful topping that complements the zucchini base perfectly.
Servings
You can even get playful with your serving idea! Try stacking them high and drenching with a drizzle of garlic-infused olive oil. This adds a beautiful flavor and makes for a stunning presentation. 🎉 A sprinkle of fresh herbs can also elevate this dish, adding an aromatic touch and a feast for the eyes. Get ready to impress your guests with these easy yet fancy flatbreads!
Equipment
A good non-stick skillet is essential for cooking the flatbreads evenly and preventing them from sticking. Make sure to preheat it before adding the batter for the best results!


This handy tool will help you easily shred the zucchini. Look for one with a wide base to save time and effort while grating!
Choose a medium-sized mixing bowl to comfortably combine the zucchini, flour, eggs, and spices. A spacious bowl will help you avoid spills!



A sturdy spatula will help you flip the flatbreads without breaking them. Opt for one with a wide head for more control.



Variations
Vegan Variation: For a vegan twist, replace the eggs with flax eggs (1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed mixed with 2.5 tablespoons of water per egg) to bind the mixture. Use dairy-free ricotta for the topping, and you're good to go! 🌱
Faq
- Can I use frozen zucchini for this recipe?
While fresh zucchini is best for texture, you can use frozen as long as it's well-drained and excess moisture is squeezed out.
- How do I know when the flatbreads are done cooking?
Look for a golden brown color on both sides, and ensure they are cooked through by gently pressing down with a spatula.
- What if my mixture is too watery?
If your flatbread mixture is too runny, add a bit more flour to achieve the desired consistency of thick pancake batter.
- Can I add other vegetables to the flatbreads?
Absolutely! Grated carrots or chopped spinach can add color and nutrition. Experiment with what you have on hand!
- What’s the best way to store leftovers?
Store any leftover flatbreads in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can reheat them in a skillet for best results!
- Can I freeze the flatbreads?
Yes! Allow them to cool completely, then wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for up to a month.
