These easy cheesy zucchini fritters are so easy to make and take 2 minutes to prep. Let’s go. I grate the zucchini and squeeze out all the water. In a separate bowl, add two eggs, grated palm, pinch of salt, and the squeezed out zucchini. Give it a mix with a little bit of flour and mix again. Heat up some oil on medium heat. Fry them for a few minutes on each side. Enjoy with any yogurt dip or sauce and follow for more.

▢ 2 cups grated zucchini, squeeze out the water
▢ 2 medium eggs
▢ ½ cup grated good quality parmigiano reggiano cheese, or pecorino
▢ ⅛ teaspoon salt
▢ ¼ cup all-purpose flour , or gluten-free flour
▢ ¼ cup olive oil, for frying
Instructions
Wash, dry the zucchini, and grate it. I used 2 small zucchini’s for this recipe which yielded 2 cups for me. Place the zucchini into a nut milk bag or cheesecloth (or use your hands) and strain out as much water as you can. You can save the zucchini water for smoothies if you wish.
In a separate bowl, crack two eggs, add the cheese, salt, grated zucchini, and flour. Stir it really well until fully combined. Head over to the stove and place a skillet with the olive oil on medium-high heat. Once the oil heats up and shimmers, turn the heat down to medium.
Scoop 1/4 cup of the zucchini mixture into the pan and make sure there’s space in between each fritter. You can also scoop the mixture into the oil with a spoon as well. I usually fry 4 at a time.
Let it cook for a few minutes, once you see the bottom and the edges are getting golden, flip it over and continue to fry it for a few more minutes. Lay each zucchini fritter onto a plate lined with paper towel as you continue fry the rest.
If you notice that there’s no oil in the pan, you can always add a touch more before you fry the second batch. I got 7 medium fritters out of this recipe but you can make them as big or as small as you wish. Enjoy with sour cream, yogurt dip, ranch, or on their own.
