Stir to combine. Crack the eggs in a separate bowl and beat them.

  6. Heat to medium then add the egg/zucchini mixture, and make sure the mixture is evenly distributed. Cook until the egg begins to cook to the sides of the skillet, about 3 to 5 minutes. Use a pot holder to place skillet in the oven.
  7. Bake 12 to 15 minutes until the center tests clean.
