Zucchini Fritters

Golden brown and crispy, these fritters are a delicious way to enjoy zucchini. The garlic infuses a savory depth, making them a perfect choice for appetizers or snacks. Serve them hot with a dollop of sour cream or a light yogurt dip for a refreshing contrast.

Feel free to get creative by substituting the zucchini with grated carrots or adding a pinch of cayenne pepper for some heat. If you're looking to save time, use a food processor for grating. These fritters store well, too — just freeze them and reheat for a quick snack.

This recipe is perfect for brunch gatherings, garden parties, or a cozy night in. Pair with a crisp salad or a bowl of soup for a well-rounded meal. They're sure to be a hit at any occasion, adding a delightful crunch to the menu.
