Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse the zucchini but don't peel. Finely shred and squeeze out excess liquid.
- Beat eggs until fluffy and stir in shredded zucchini. Mix all dry ingredients in a separate bowl and pour into the egg batter. Stir and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
- Shape elongated flat bread pieces (1 piece / serving) with oily hands. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with sea salt.
- Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes. Let cool on the rack for a while. Cut horizontally and enjoy with your favorite toppings.
Tip!
For extra flavor, sprinkle with grated parmesan instead of sea salt.
If you don't have coconut flour, you can substitute with almond flour.

It's 2 separate steps. Shape into the elongated pieces, then bake and then slice in half length ways.
There aren't good substitutes for the seeds. You could try omitting them.
We have not tried a substitute for the psyllium in this recipe.
This recipe calls for baking soda.
That does sound like a delicious accompaniment!
