1
In a medium sized bowl, add your shredded zucchini.
-
2
I used my box grater, you may use a food chopper as well.
-
3
Next you must drain out your zucchini.
-
4
If you dont, your pancakes can be too soggy.
-
5
I literally squeeze the life out of the zucchini by hand.
-
6
You can also place your shredded zucchini in a colander and let the water drip down into another bowl.
-
7
This takes more time.
-
8
If you are like me and you want it done now, squeeze it!
-
9
Now, add the drained zucchini into a mixing bowl along with the beaten egg, Parmesan cheese, baking powder, flour, salt and pepper.
-
10
I do a dash of each salt and pepper, then add more salt later on.
-
11
Check out your batter.
-
12
Is it too watery?
-
13
If so, add more flour.
-
14
Mix well, and now you are ready to fry.
-
15
Into a frying pan, add the oil and butter.
-
16
Butter adds flavor.
-
17
Yum!
-
18
Use a spoon to make your pancakes.
-
19
I used a tablespoon for each and ended up with 10 zucchini pancakes.
-
20
My pan held about 5 pancakes, so keep adding more oil and butter and cook in batches if needed.
-
21
Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
-
22
After you are done frying, remove them from your pan and place on a dish lined with paper towel to remove excess oil.
-
23
Sprinkle with more salt and repeat frying the rest of the batter.
-
24
Thats it!
-
25
These are best if eaten right away.
-
26
Why wait?

Enjoy!
