Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Add the almond flour to the egg mixture and whisk until there are no lumps, ensuring a smooth batter.
Fold in the crumbled bacon, shredded Swiss cheese, and chopped parsley into the batter until evenly distributed.
Arrange the sliced zucchini in the prepared baking dish, creating an even layer.
Pour the batter over the zucchini slices, making sure to cover them completely.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top for an extra golden crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bake is set in the middle.
Allow the dish to cool for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps the layers set and makes it easier to serve.
