Zucchini Fritters

Zucchini! I love zucchini! You can make sweet stuff, breakfast stuff, add it to soups, eat it plain, its just yummy. We had 2 leftover zucchini from meal prep and they were starting to get a little soft so it was time to use them up. I was tempted to make these brownies I found that use zucchini, but decided to go a little healthier lol. These fritters were so yummy, and they were equally as yummy warmed up the following day. They are uber easy to make and pretty much fool proof. We made some turkey cheeseburger mac stuff for dinner and I had a tiny helping of that and like 4 of these fritters. I was STUFFED! it was so worth it though :) Enjoy!

Ingredients
  • 2-3 medium zucchini
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • ¼ tsp paprika
  • ⅓ cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup wheat flour
  • ½ tsp baking powder
Directions
  • Shred zucchini by hand or in a food processor
  • Place zucchini in a clean thin dish towel (layered cheese cloth may work as well), squeeze out as much water as possible and then place zucchini into a bowl
  • Mix in the rest of the ingredients
  • Heat a griddle on 350 and spray with cooking spray. Place big spoonfuls onto the hot griddle and flatten out as much as possible so the fritters cook through.
  • Cook approx 3 mins and then flip. They should be golden brown on each side.
  • You can eat them plain like I did, or with dip, sour cream, cheese, whatever you want :)
