Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups grated zucchini
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for frying

Instructions

  7. Serve warm.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, you can bake these fritters at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce like sour cream or a garlic aioli.
  • These fritters are a great way to incorporate more vegetables into your diet, similar to how meal planning helps with healthy eating.
