The farmers market is usually the first place I go as soon as the zucchini season starts.
These are quick and easy little moist cheesy squares or cut into stick form that is just bursting with a big flavor.
Not really very bread-like more like a thick quiche as these are still very moist and egg in the consistency.
I do add a bit more of the baking mix to make a thicker consistency so they are firmer, you will have to experiment which you like better.
We even serve these with a side of marinara sauce at a family function and they are always the first appetizer to vanish quickly.
They are terrific served either warm or cold!

Easy Recipe
These are a perfect addition to any appetizer party, they feed a large crowd for sure!
The soft bread like zucchini sticks is the best little appetizer that everyone raves about at any party or picnic gathering.
I always choose to bring these along to any party and they are the most talked-about delicious little morsels all summer long.
Zucchini is easy to find during the summer months and this light little finger food is the perfect addition before any meals or dinner appetizers.
Perfect for Dipping!
I love these with cheese melted on top and fresh marinara heated tomato sauce.
These can be a great addition to game day appetizer snacks, after school, or an addition to any comforting stew meal.
Tips
- The number one most important thing not to forget is to squeeze all the water out of the zucchini (it holds lots of water)
- I add the cheese on top after they are baked.
- If you see the batter is too thin add 1/4 cup more baking mix especially if you want firm sticks
- Bake until it looks dry on the top, it shouldn't look wet
- Keep leftovers in the refrigerator after cooling
- Just sprinkle with whole milk mozzarella and some Pecorino Romano or Parmesan then broil the top for just a quick minute until golden on top after they are cooked for a crispier topping!
