Cheesy Vegetable Fritters
A cute little pancake that holds so much flavor and comes together in 15 minutes
I use these all the time in place of my sandwich bread. Some turkey slices, salami and cheese and I’m in heaven! I paired it with my favorite quick dip: my Lazy Tzatziki.

Very easy to do and a good recipe to keep on hand. I made them on a camping trip but I only had shredded broccoli slaw mix. I lightly sauteed the broccoli mix and they turned out fantastic. I added a quarter cup of cottage cheese for a little more protein along with the shredded. I will definitely make them again!
Absolutely delicious!!! My kids love them thank you so much
I substituted 1 large cucumber (seeds removed) and 2 small pattypan squash for the zucchini. The taste is a little different and a little more complex. My garden has been producing a surplus of cucumbers so I thought this might be a way to use up this surplus. They freeze well and you just heat them in a 350 oven for about 20 minutes.
These were wonderful! I salted the zucchini & squeezed out the water before combining everything. I used chickpea flour for the binder. The flavors were great!
omg, this is my new favorite thing!!
imagine zucchini tasting so delicious. I took another reviewers advice and used my waffle maker.
served with your tzatziki dip, chefs kiss!!
thank you for this tasty new dish!!
These Fritters are amazing! I add 100gm of crumbled Feta…so delicious!
These are delicious. I’m gluten free so I used gluten free flour and they turned out perfect. I may try almond flour next time to reduce the carbs. I plan to use 2 of them as a top and bottom bun for a hamburger. my non gluten free husband has shared this recipe he loves them so much. I’ll be trying more of you recipes. Thank you!!!
Hi Linda and welcome! Thanks so much for giving them a try! Glad the recipe worked for you and you and hubby enjoyed them!
for the nutrition amounts is that for the whole batch or just one cooked fritter?
Hi – can you freeze these please?
Hi Halina, absolutely yes!
Could I make this in a casserole dish and bake them?
Hi Hilary, it might work in a small baking dish
