Ingredients

• 2 medium zucchini
• 2 large eggs
• 0.5 cup almond flour
• 0.25 cup parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Grate the zucchini using the large holes of a box grater. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess water as possible.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten.

Step 3

Add the squeezed zucchini, almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir the mixture until fully combined.

Step 4

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Allow the oil to heat up.

Step 5

Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the batter per pancake into the skillet, flattening each pancake slightly with the back of a spoon to create an even thickness.

Step 6

Cook the pancakes for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy on the edges.

Step 7

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more olive oil to the skillet as needed.

Step 8

Serve warm with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt, and garnish with additional parsley if desired.
