A delightful and creamy zucchini gratin topped with a golden cheesy crust.
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a perfect golden crust.
Slice the fresh zucchini into thin rounds.
Uniform slices ensure even cooking and a consistent texture.
In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, minced garlic, salt, and ground black pepper.
Mixing the seasoning with the cream ensures even flavor distribution.
Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer in a baking dish.
Overlapping slightly is fine, but avoid stacking too much to ensure even cooking.
Pour the cream mixture evenly over the zucchini.
Ensure all zucchini slices are coated for maximum flavor.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
A generous layer of cheese creates a delicious golden crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
Check occasionally to ensure the top doesn't brown too quickly.
Switch to broil for 2-3 minutes to achieve a bubbly and golden top.
Keep a close eye to prevent burning during broiling.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Allowing it to cool helps the flavors meld and makes serving easier.
