Clean Eating Zucchini Cottage Cheese Fritters Recipes

ZUCCHINI FRITTERS (GLUTEN-FREE, LOW-CARB, KETO)

Steps:

• Grate the zucchini and put into a bowl. Sprinkle with salt, stir together and let stand for 20 minutes. The salt will work to draw the moisture out of the zucchini.
• Squeeze out the liquid from the zucchini, with either a nut milk bag or cheesecloth, then return to a clean bowl.
• Add the shallot, eggs, goat cheese, almond flour, salt and pepper. Then stir to combine.
• Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Using either your hands or a spoon, dollop out mounds (approximately 1/4 cup worth) of the mixture into the hot pan. Using a spatula, push down each fritter to flatten.
• Cook the fritters 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they're lightly golden.
• Remove the fritters from the pan and place them on a paper towel to dab away any extra oil.
• Mix the sauce ingredients together in a bowl, stirring until creamy.
• Serve the fritters with a dollop of the sauce, then enjoy!
