Recipe Ingredients
- 2–3 zucchini (about 400–500 grams), thinly sliced
- 3 eggs, at room temperature
- 100 grams plain yogurt
- 100 grams Feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons grated cheese for topping (Parmesan, Gouda, Mozzarella…)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: pinch of chilli flakes, garlic powder, dried oregano or thyme
Methods
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a small baking dish with oil or butter.
2. Prepare the Zucchini
Cut the zucchini into thin slices. For a less watery result, sprinkle the slices with a little salt, let them sit for 10 minutes and then pat dry.
3. Mix the Filling
In a mixing bowl, whisk together 3 eggs, 100 grams of plain yogurt, salt, pepper, and any spices you’re using.
4. Assemble
Layer the zucchini slices in a baking dish. Spread 100 grams of crumbled Feta cheese evenly over the zucchini slices.
Pour the egg-yogurt mixture over it and top with 2 tablespoons of grated cheese.
5. Bake
Bake it in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the centre is set.
6. Serve
Allow the Zucchini Feta Bake to cool slightly before slicing. Serve it warm or enjoy it chilled as leftovers.
Serving Suggestions
- Combine it with a slice of rustic bread and a fresh tomato salad.
- Serve it cold the next day with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream.
- Pack it in a lunch box with a few olives and cherry tomatoes.
Variations to Try
- Top it with sliced tomatoes before baking for extra colour and flavour.
- Mix in cooked onions or garlic to enhance flavour.
- Sprinkle with breadcrumbs before baking for a bit of crunch.

There are times when a bake exceeds all expectations—and not because it’s extravagant or fussy, but because the flavours simply belong together. This Swiss roll was just that.
