How To Make Keto Zucchini Fritters

  1. Grate the zucchini into a brand-new dishcloth or muslin cloth and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
  2. Mix the drained zucchini, parmesan, almond flour, eggs, salt, and pepper in a bowl and sit for a few minutes. This lets the almond meal soak up some liquid and prevents the fritter from tasting dry and grainy.
  3. Pour oil into a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and scoop 1/4 cup of the fritter mix into the hot oil, pushing them gently into a flattened, round shape. Depending on the size of your pan, you may need to cook these in a couple of batches.
  4. After 2-3 minutes, gently flip the fritters over, remembering to flip them away from you to prevent the oil from splashing.
  5. The fritters will be cooked through after another 2-3 minutes. Remove from the pan and enjoy.
  6. Top with sour cream and chopped parsley, if desired!
