Ingredients

  • 2 medium Zucchini Shredded (2 cups)
  • ½ cup Flour
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ Onion Shredded
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ cup Sourdough Discard
  • 1 Egg
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Shred the zucchini in a large bowl. Place the zucchini onto a clean kitchen towel and wring out the zucchini to get rid of a lot of moisture. Place it back in the large mixing bowl.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl and mix well.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of oil into a large skillet. A neutral oil is best, like avocado oil or vegetable oil.
  • With a small scoop, scoop ¼ cup of the mixture into the pan. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes and flip. Cook for a few minutes on the other side until golden brown. Remove the fritter from the oil and place it on a wire rack or a paper towel lined plate. Sprinkle with a little bit of salt and serve hot.

Notes

  • It is really important that the zucchini is very dry.  The best way to do that is to add the shredded zucchini to a clean kitchen towel.  Wring out the zucchini over the sink to get rid of as much liquid as you can.
  • Depending on the size of your scoop will depend on how big the fritter is and how many fritters you can make.
