For a firmer texture:
Cook on low heat with a lid so the eggs set slowly and evenly.
Oven-baked version:
Pour the mixture into a buttered baking dish and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 20–25 minutes, until the top is golden and firm. This is perfect if you’re cooking for several people.
Boost the flavor:
Add a pinch of garlic powder, nutmeg, or Italian seasoning. Even a touch of chili flakes can give it a nice kick!
Serve it with:
Whole-grain toast, fresh salad, or avocado slices for a balanced and energizing meal.
Control moisture:
Always dry the zucchini well — excess water can make the dish watery. A clean kitchen towel works great for squeezing it out.
Make it creamy:
Mix in some extra cheese — mozzarella, ricotta, or even cream cheese — just before the eggs are fully set for a deliciously soft, creamy texture.
Make it heartier:
Add spinach, mushrooms, bell peppers, or even a bit of ham or smoked salmon for a protein-packed version.
Meal prep idea:
Pour the mixture into muffin tins and bake for 20 minutes. These mini zucchini egg muffins store well in the fridge and reheat beautifully — perfect for grab-and-go breakfasts!
