Cheesy Zucchini Fritters


Gluten, soy and nut free, these allergy friendly chickpea fritters with Angel Food cheddar are perfect for a light meal that the whole whānau will enjoy.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups grated zucchini 

  • 1 cup grated Angel Food Dairy-Free Cheddar

  • 1 ½ cup corn kernels 

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced 

  • 1 ¼ cup chickpea flour 

  • 2 tsp cumin 

  • 1 tsp oregano 

  • 1 tsp thyme 

  • 1 tsp salt and pepper 

  • ¾ cup finely chopped green onions 

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine shredded zucchini, corn, cheddar, green onions, chickpea flour, garlic, cumin, oregano, thyme, salt & pepper.

  2. Stir together until well combined. Allow to sit for at least 5 minutes. This step is important because the flour will absorb the moisture from the zucchini and create a batter.

  3. Warm a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Grease with preferred cooking oil then scoop out 1/4 cup of the zucchini mixture at a time into the skillet. Cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side, until light golden brown.
