Ingredients
- 1 pound zucchini
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 large egg beaten
- ½ tsp xanthan gum
- 1/2 tsp Kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or more for frying
Instructions
-
Grate the zucchini on the large holes of a box grater or using a food processor. Place the grated zucchini, in a colander over the sink. Gently stir in 1 tsp salt and toss to combine; let sit for 10 minutes.
-
Squeeze handfuls of zucchini using a clean dish towel or cheesecloth to drain as much liquid as possible.
-
In a large bowl, add zucchini, coconut flour, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, and egg. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir well to combine.
-
Heat olive oil or refined coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
-
Scoop ¼ cup of batter for each fritter, flattening out the tops with a spatula.
-
Cook on each side for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Adjust the temperature if needed.
Notes:
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- If your dough seems too wet feel free to add more coconut flour to absorb all that moisture and make the zucchini patties super crispy and tasty.
