For those of you who don't have a sweet tooth, this savoury slice would be a perfect choice for picnic or morning/afternoon tea. And if you are looking for something healthy (e.g., for your six-pack abs), this is not the right place! Go to my salad recipe! ;)
Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups self-raising flour
- 0.5 cup grated cheese
- 1 zucchini, grated or diced
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 1/2 cup spring onion, chopped
- 1 tbsp garlic, minced
- 100g bacon, chopped
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 carrot, diced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup (250ml) milk
- 50g butter, melted
Method:
1. Preheat oven to 200 degree Celsius. Grease slice tin and line base with baking paper.
2. Heat oil in a fry pan, fry garlic until golden brown. Add bacon, carrot, onion and soy sauce and stir until softened. Whisk milk and egg together, and add melted butter.
3. Sift flour into a large bowl. Add grated cheese, spring onion, zucchini.
5. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Stand in pan for a few minutes then let it cool before slicing.
NOTE: It is important that you give bacon a bit of stir fry with garlic and soy sauce. This will give your slice (and the whole house!) a nice smell (too bad if you hate garlic!) while baking.
I hope you enjoy baking (and eating) it as much as I do! :)
