Even though I really do enjoy French Toast, I am much more of a savory breakfast person. I have been loving the zucchinis from our CSA box because then I get to make one of my most favorite things - zucchini pancakes!!!
And I love anything I can douse with Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Sauce, so it's a win-win.
Zucchini Pancakes
3-5 Zucchinni and/or yellow squash
1/4 onion grated or finely chopped
2-3 eggs
1-2 tsp minced garlic
Salt & Pepper
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
This recipe is not strict - I probably change it a bit everytime I make them. I just use what I have and adjust the seasonings/garlic/cheese accordingly. Also consider what things you would like to top with - hot sauce, sour cream, plain Greek yogurt, per your preference. Ross really likes them with sour cream.
Grate the zucchinis and place them in a bowl. I think some people drain/strain some excess liquid off at this point, but I don't. It's a hassle and a mess, so I just go for it.
Gross Packers colors.
Add in the eggs.
And the rest of the ingredients.
Then scoop the mixture onto your hot, lightly oiled griddle. I usually have the griddle set to 350F and cook them on each side for 3-4 minutes.
They will sizzle like bacon, and fill the kitchen with a great smell.
Lovely and lightly browned on both sides.
The cheese is really the key I think - it makes them all gooey inside.
What's your favorite way to eat a zucchini?
Packers colors are not gross
