 Why It Sometimes Turns Soggy (And How to Fix It)

 Problem: Too Wet

 Always squeeze grated zucchini in a clean towel.
 After squeezing, measure again — you want about 1 packed cup dry zucchini.

 Problem: Crumbly Texture

 Add 1 extra egg
 Or add 1 tbsp psyllium husk (great binder for low-carb)

 Problem: Too Dense

 Don’t overmix
 Make sure baking powder is fresh

 Making It Sandwich-Strong

For sturdy slices:

 Bake slightly longer (firm center)
 Cool 100% before slicing
 Refrigerate 1 hour before cutting
 Toast slices before filling

 High-Protein Version

Add:

• ¼ cup unflavored protein powder

• ½ cup cottage cheese (blend smooth first)

 Boosts protein by 5–7g per slice.

 Keto Strict Version

Replace:

• Almond flour → ¾ cup almond flour + 2 tbsp coconut flour

• Add 1 tbsp flaxseed meal

 Lowers carbs further and improves structure.

 Extra Cheesy Version

Add:

• ½ cup shredded mozzarella

• 2 tbsp cream cheese

Makes it softer and richer (great for grilled sandwiches).

 Storage & Meal Prep

Fridge:

• 4–5 days airtight

Freezer:

• Slice first

• Freeze up to 2 months

• Toast from frozen
