Zucchini Yeast Bread

Ingredients & Directions


1 lb Zucchini — grated 1 1/4 c Lukewarm Water
2 tb Salt 3 1/2 c Flour
1 pk Active Dry Yeast Olive Oil — for brushing

1. In a colander, alternate layers of grated zucchini and salt. Leave
for 30 mins over a bowl or sink. Then squeeze out the moisture with
your hands.

2. Combine the yeast with 1/4 cup of lukewarm water, stir, and leave
to dissolve for 15 mins.

3. Place the zucchini, yeast, and flour in a bowl. Stir together, and
add just enough of the remaining water to obtain a rough dough.

4. Transfer to a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic.
Return the dough to the bowl, cover with a plastic bag, and leave to
rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hrs.

5. Grease a baking sheet. Puch down dough with fist and knead into a
tapered cylinder. Place on baking sheet, cover, and leave to rise in
a warm place until doubled in volume, about 45 mins.

6. Preheat oven to 425 F. Brush with olive oil and bake until golden,
40 to 45 mins. Cool on a wire rack.
