No need to peel it if the skin is thin and clean, but you can if you prefer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Zucchini (Courgette):<\/strong> After grating, squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible using a clean tea towel or kitchen paper. This helps the bites hold together and become nicely golden.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reduced Fat Cheddar:<\/strong> Adds plenty of cheesy flavour while keeping the recipe lighter. You can use full-fat cheddar if preferred.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Egg:<\/strong> Helps bind all the ingredients together so the bites keep their shape while baking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Salt and Black Pepper:<\/strong> Season to taste to bring out the natural sweetness of the vegetables.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Olive Oil Spray:<\/strong> Lightly spray the baking tray and the tops of the bites to help them crisp up and turn beautifully golden in the oven. A small drizzle of olive oil can be used instead if preferred.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Once you've gathered all the ingredients and prepared them accordingly, you're all set to create this easy and delightful recipe.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">See the recipe card for specific quantities and instructions.<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/sweet-potato-zucchini-bites-3.jpg\" alt=\"close up of Cheesy Sweet Potato and Zucchini Bites on a white plate next to a bowl of pizza sauce\" class=\"wp-image-48022\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/sweet-potato-zucchini-bites-3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/sweet-potato-zucchini-bites-3-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/sweet-potato-zucchini-bites-3-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/sweet-potato-zucchini-bites-3-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/sweet-potato-zucchini-bites-3-720x960.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/sweet-potato-zucchini-bites-3-360x480.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/sweet-potato-zucchini-bites-3-180x240.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/sweet-potato-zucchini-bites-3-560x747.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/sweet-potato-zucchini-bites-3-640x853.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/sweet-potato-zucchini-bites-3-150x200.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-feast-feature-wrapper\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Variations and Substitutes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These sweet potato and zucchini bites are easy to customise with different cheeses, vegetables and seasonings to suit your taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Try different cheeses:<\/strong> Swap the cheddar for mozzarella, Red Leicester, Colby Jack, Gruy\u00e8re or a mature white cheddar.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add extra vegetables:<\/strong> Finely grated carrot, parsnip or butternut squash all work well.
