Gluten free bread with courgettes

This is the first language misunderstanding. In Italian we call this type of pie, plumcake (one word), that can be sweet or salty. If I am not wrong, this is not an english name because it doesn’t exist as a only word. By the way, I call it as we do in Italian.

I love vegetables, I really like them, I can be happier with a courgettes pasta than with a piece of meat. My son Andrea is very happy to eat vegetables too and he is only two years old. In my opinion, introducing every kind of vegetables in childhood helps to better appreciate them.

On the contrary, my partner is not a real fun of vegetables at all, he could eat meat every day if I cooked! So I have been always trying to find different ways to help him to eat vegetables. So I have started to prepare pies and this is one of my favorite: plum cake with courgettes!

  • You can serve it either warm or cold together with a chilled dry sparkling wine (may I suggest Gewurztraminer?)
