Zucchini Fritters Recipe
Quick and crispy zucchini fritters are fried to golden perfection and are finger-licking good - a great way to use up that summer produce!
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini grated
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup flour
- ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 1 large egg lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
Instructions
- Place the zucchini in a colander in the sink and sprinkle with the salt. Let sit 5-10 minutes to drain. Wrap the zucchini in a kitchen towel and squeeze it to remove the excess water.
- Add the zucchini to a medium bowl, then add the flour, parmesan, garlic powder, pepper, and egg. Mix until combined.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Drop the zucchini mixture into the hot oil by spoonfuls, flattening slightly with the back of the spoon. Cook 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook an additional 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.
- Serve warm with sour cream.

Notes
STORE. Allow the easy zucchini fritters to cool before placing them together in an airtight container. They will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days.
FREEZE. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months.
To reheat. You can reheat the fritters in the oven at 350°F or in a frying pan over medium heat. The microwave is my last choice only because it won't crisp up the outside like the other methods.
