Ingredients

  • 1 zucchini medium, grated
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 onion small, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 egg
  • pepper freshly ground, to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lay the grated zucchini on a layer of paper towels and sprinkle with salt. Allow to sit for 5 minutes and transfer to a strainer. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, press out as much liquid as you can.
  • Transfer to a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients. Stir until just combined.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and drop spoonfuls of the mixture a couple inches apart. Bake for 10 minutes, flip and bake for 10 more until both sides are golden brown. Serve with sour cream or yogurt if desired.

Notes

For crispier fritters, spray or brush each fritter with a little olive oil just before flipping the first time, then spray the other side once flipped.
