This is my tenth cake since the beginning of summer and I can share my recipe with you because I don't think I can improve it any further Grated zucchini and carrots keep this cake naturally moist throughout. Total baking time is 35 minutes. The goat cheese melts gently inside, creating soft pockets of creaminess. Serve warm or cold, it travels well for picnics.

Chef Patrick's Comment
Simple summer cake recipe. If you want to create a special version, pour half of the batter then place small cubes of fresh salmon and a small crushed mixture of pitted black and green olives in the middle, then cover with the other half of the batter.
Frequently asked questions
Can I substitute the goat cheese with another cheese?
Yes. Fresh goat cheese is still best, but white cheese or ricotta works too. Avoid heavily salted or strong cheeses that would overpower the zucchini. Use the same weight as specified.
Why chill the batter before baking?
It lets the batter set slightly and absorb moisture from the zucchini. This gives you a less watery, sturdier cake. Rest for at least 15–20 minutes while the oven preheats.
How long does this cake keep?
Three days refrigerated in an airtight container. Freeze up to two months wrapped in plastic film. Thaw at room temperature for 2 hours before serving. Cold storage doesn't affect its texture.
