Method
- Grate the zucchinis and squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, coconut flour, eggs, parsley, Parmesan (if using), minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Stir the mixture until you have a thick, sticky batter and let it sit for 5 minutes.
- Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Scoop spoonfuls of the batter onto the skillet and flatten slightly.
- Fry each fritter for 3–4 minutes until golden brown and crispy, flipping carefully halfway through.

Notes
To make a vegan version, substitute eggs with flax eggs or mashed avocado and use nutritional yeast instead of Parmesan. For extra flavor, add a pinch of smoked paprika or chili flakes to the batter. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze them for up to 2 months, maintaining their texture by reheating in an oven or skillet. Try serving with tahini or yogurt-lemon sauce for dipping, and don’t forget to squeeze the zucchini dry for the perfect fritter texture!
