This easy baked zucchini casserole is an old-fashioned vegetarian recipe that I just love! Cheesy flavors are mixed with the layers of zucchini and Ritz Crackers to create a rich savory recipe that is so appetizing, simple, and incredibly comforting. 

Unlike other crispy baked zucchini casserole recipes, this cheesy casserole is made with egg so it is soft and perfect for breakfast or brunch! The yummy buttery flavors pair so well with fresh zucchini, crunchy crackers and cheddar cheese which makes this recipe one of the best! 

Casseroles are a great way to use up any extra vegetables you may have waiting to be used in your next recipe. I like to use fresh zucchini because of the fresh flavors and tender textures it is known for–this cheesy zucchini recipe is perfect for the summertime when you have an abundance of the fresh green vegetable!

    How To Make It

    1. First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit so the simple zucchini casserole cooks and the cheese melts.
    2. Grease the casserole dish with cooking spray or oil and set it aside. 
      In a large bowl, stir together the sliced zucchini, Ritz crackers, eggs, butter, cheddar cheese, and milk. Stir everything until everything is mixed and has a somewhat uniform shape!
    3. Pour the ingredients into an even layer in the casserole dish. Bake the cheesy zucchini in the oven for forty minutes.
    4. Remove the baked zucchini from the oven and allow it to cool for at least ten minutes before serving. Allowing the casserole to sit a little while before serving mends all of the savory buttery ingredients together.
    5. Serve hot and enjoy! Sprinkle the casserole with fresh parsley if you would like. 

    Variations

    Can baked zucchini casserole be frozen? 

    Yes! Follow the steps up until transferring the ingredients into the casserole dish, then cover with plastic wrap or an airtight lid. Freeze the unbaked casserole in the freezer for up to two months.
