Prep Time 25 minutes mins

Cook Time 20 minutes mins

Proofing Time 1 hour hr 15 minutes mins

Total Time 2 hours hrs

Servings 8 pieces

Ingredients

  

• ½ cup shredded zucchini  38 oz 
• ¼ cup finely minced onions 1.5 oz
• 1 tsp rosemary or other herbs
• 1 tsp salt .2 oz
• ½ +  ¹/₈  cup  water 6 oz
• 2 ½ cups All purpose flour or a mix with some whole wheat 12 oz

Instructions

 

• Shred the zucchini and mince the onion and herbs.
• Place water in a mixing bowl. 
• Add yeast and salt and stir to dissolve them.
• Add the zucchini, onion, and herb and stir well.
• Pour in the flour and mix well until the flour is all moistened. The dough will be stiff until the zucchini releases its water. You can substitute a cup of whole wheat flour, but if you do, add another 2 teaspoons (.3 oz) of water to the recipe.
• Knead with the dome for about a minute.
• Cover with a heavy wet cloth and allow the dough to double in bulk.
• Flour a work surface and scrape the dough onto it.
• Cut the proofed dough into 8 pieces.  An easy way to do this is to first roll it into a cylinder, section the cylinder into four similar-sized pieces and cut each of these in half. 
• Take each piece and fold dough edges to the underside to form dough balls or roll them between your hands.
• Allow the dough to rest and rise at least 20 minutes.
• Roll the dough balls one at a time with a rolling pin to a diameter of 6 to 7 inches.
• Bake them on a frying pan or griddle over medium heat until slightly browned on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Use two frying pans to halve the cooking time.
