Clean Zucchini Fritters

These savory fritters are the perfect way to hide more veggies at breakfast or for a snack. Fritters are a great on-the-go meal (no mess in the car for kiddos) and they heat up well, so they can be prepared ahead of time. I have a feeling this will be my go-to breakfast for famer’s market days! These are similar in taste to hash browns, so we like to dip them in unsweetened ketchup.

Ingredients

  • 2 medium fresh zucchini shredded
  • 1 carrot shredded
  • 1 small onion shredded
  • 3 eggs
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese 
  • ¼ cup almond flour or white or brown rice flour
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 385°F.
  • Grease a muffin tin or could line your pan with unbleached baking cups
  • Shred the zucchini, carrot, and onion in food processor (or could use box grater)
  • Squeeze the vegetables in a thin kitchen towel to remove excess liquid.
  • Place vegetables in a medium to large size bowl.
  • Add the eggs, Parmesan cheese, almond flour (or rice flour), and spices and mix until combined.
  • Fill the muffin tins ½ full.
  • Bake for approximately 15-18 minutes or until tops and sides are starting to brown.
  • I serve with Primal Kitchen unsweetened ketchup
