Baked Zucchini Fritters
- Number of Servings: 4
Ingredients
Ingredients:1 extra large zucchini or 2 medium zucchini (2 cups used for nutrition facts)1/2 medium onion1 teaspoons baking powder6 to 8 tablespoons whole wheat flour2 egg whiteslarge pinch of saltfresh cracked pepper
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Use the large part of the grater to grate zucchini and onion. Place grated veggies in a strainer and press down firmly with a paper towel to remove as much excess moisture as possible. (Removing moisture is the most important part of this recipe!) Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the egg. In a small bowl, mix together the baking powder, salt and 6 tablespoons of flour. Combine the flour mixture with the zucchini mixture. Add additional flour if it is still too wet. Drop mixture into 3 inch sized circles on a greased baking sheet or use moonpie pan like we did. Bake for 15-20 minutes, then turn the pancakes over, and bake for an additional 10 minutes. Fritters should golden brown on on both sides when done. Note: if they seem too moist in the middle, put them back in the oven and crisp them up some more. Some zucchini are more moist than others and need more time in the oven. Makes 16 fritters. 4 fritters per serving
