Zucchini Au Gratin

I just pulled this recipe out of the box. I haven't made it since last year and forgot how good it was. I at the whole thing myself over a few days...ok it was only 2. This is a great recipe for both zucchini lovers and haters. A great vegetarian dish too!

3 Tbs butter
1/2 large sweet onion sliced
2 zucchini 1/4" slices
1 tsp kosher salt
1 Tbs flour
1/2 c hot milk
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup munster cheese

Melt 2 Tbs butter and cook the onions about 15 min until tender but not brown. Add zucchini and cook covered 10 min. Add salt and flour and cook about a minute to get the raw flour flavor out. Add the milk and bring to a simmer. Cook until it starts to thicken, a few minutes. Pour into a small baking dish (6x8). Mix bread crumbs and cheese and sprinkle over dish. Dot with 1 Tbs of butter. Bake about 25 minutes (until hot, bubbly, and golden) at 400 degrees.

I think you could make this gluten free by just using corn starch to thicken and omit the bread crumbs. If you use the corn starch I would mix it into the milk instead of putting it directly in the pan. I'm sure it would still be good.

I made this again with chopped broccoli and it was just as good. I did share some with my husband this time.
