Crispy Zucchini Patties with Parmesan and Mozzarella

👩‍🍳 Directions

1. Prepare the batter: In a medium bowl, combine the grated zucchini, beaten eggs, chopped onion, flour, Parmesan, Mozzarella, and a pinch of salt. Mix until evenly combined and the batter holds together.
2. Heat the oil: In a skillet, heat 1–2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
3. Cook the patties: Drop heaping tablespoons of the zucchini mixture into the skillet. Flatten gently with a spatula to form patties. Cook for 3–4 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.
4. Drain and serve: Remove cooked patties and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Serve warm with sour cream, Greek yogurt, or marinara sauce if desired.

• Great for meal prep—store leftovers in the fridge and reheat in a skillet or air fryer.
