Creamy Zucchini Crostini

"This is a wonderful appetiser, originally from famous German chef Tim Mälzer. It is fresh and light with a lovely zucchini garlic onion taste. Without the bread, the zucchini cream can also be used as a dip for many other uses. I hope you enjoy. :)"

  1. Simple and delightful! I had large zucchinis, and found that one worked perfectly here. I served on a gluten-free baguette and used cream cheese, since that was on hand. Thanks for sharing! Veggie Swap 46
     
  2. This is a wonderful appetizer, so flavorful with not so many ingredients! I had a loaf of crusty french bread so just cut each slice in half and that worked fine. Loved the creamy garlicky zucchini, great with the Parmesan. Thanks for sharing the recipe! Made for Fall Pick-A-Chef 2011
     
  3. A very nice way to fix zucchini~ I served on toast and actually enjoyed it better just by itself. Nice and creamy using cream cheese. Thanks! Mad fo the Australian Swap Sept. 2010
     
  4. This was wonderful! It was easy to make and was huge crowd pleaser. Even the people who didn't like onions ate this and didn't even know there was any in it :) Great flavor and texture, will be making this for many events in the future.
     
  5. Very tasty! I did not creamed the zucchini with the goat cheese, instead I put the sauteed zucchini on top of the sliced goat cheese. I don't think it would have altered the taste. I actually made it twice, once over thin slices of toasted bread and the other time over thick slices; delicious both ways.
