Get the recipe she uses for fresh produce straight from her garden.
“I’m always looking for ways to use the mountains of zucchini that my garden produces — but I wanted a recipe with plenty of fiber and flavor,” Katie said when we inquired about her latest homemade creation. “This one fit the bill.”
If you’d like to create these beauties yourself, the recipe she used comes courtesy of Amee Livingston, the cook behind Amee’s Savory Dish. In addition to zucchini, it also includes carrots, raisins, and walnuts, and the flavors are further intensified with cinnamon, vanilla, and lemon zest.
“The end result wasn’t super sweet, and I replaced the raisins with chopped-up, dried cherries,” Katie said. “I’m going to try replacing the applesauce with Greek yogurt next time, and I may throw in a few chocolate chips, too!”
Curious to try it for yourself? Here’s the full recipe. Whether you experiment a little, like Katie did, or follow it exactly by the book, we know you’ll love the tasty treats you end up with.
Katie always seems to end up with more zucchini than she knows what to do with, so this isn’t the only recipe she turns to for this versatile vegetable. For another delicious way to bake with her harvest, she also loves this zucchini bread recipe from her pal Jake Cohen.
