Ingredients:

  • 2 medium-sized zucchinis
  • 2 medium-sized yellow squash
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded Gruyère cheese (or your choice of keto-friendly cheese)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for greasing

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Wash the zucchinis and yellow squash, then slice them into thin rounds.
  3. In a large skillet, heat some olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Add the sliced zucchini and yellow squash to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened slightly and released some of their moisture.
  5. Add the dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine the seasonings with the vegetables.
  6. Pour in the heavy cream and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the cream to thicken slightly. Remove the skillet from heat.
  7. Grease a baking dish with olive oil and transfer half of the cooked zucchini and yellow squash mixture to the dish, spreading it out evenly.
  8. Sprinkle half of the shredded Gruyère cheese and half of the grated Parmesan cheese over the first layer of vegetables.
  9. Add the remaining zucchini and yellow squash to the dish, creating a second layer.
  10. Top the second layer with the remaining shredded Gruyère cheese and grated Parmesan cheese.
  11. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown on top.
  12. Once the gratin is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
  13. Serve your Keto Zucchini Gratin with Yellow Squash as a delightful low-carb side dish that’s perfect for any keto meal.
