Zucchini Fritters

I have been seeing recipes for a parmesan zucchini all over for the last few weeks. I have made them twice and for me that recipe was an epic fail. The breadcrumb mixture does not stay on them and if you slice them to thin they don’t want to come off of the baking sheet. I hope if you are tempted to make that recipe I have just talked you out of it, try this one instead. It is a wonderful recipe and a great way to use zucchini this summer when we all have it coming out of our gardens faster than we know what to do with it.

When purchasing zucchini look for ones that are firm and usually under 8 inches in length. The seeds in these are still soft and have not had time to develop. If your neighbor has shared some of those giant zucchinis with you, don’t despair. Cut them in half and scoop out the seeds and proceed with your recipe. You need about 3 cups for the recipe here.

    I just made these and they are surprisingly delicious. They came out so light and the flavor of the Feta was mild. We had them with a dollop of Greek yogurt, perfect!
