Gluten Free Zucchini Fritters

Serves: 3-5

• 3 Medium Zucchini
• 1 Onion, Fine Diced
• 3 Garlic Cloves, Minced
• 1 Egg, Beaten
• 1/2 C Oat Flour
• Sea Salt & Cracked Pepper
• Olive Oil for Frying

Recommended Equipment:
Mercer 4 Sided Box Grater
KitchenAid Grain Mill
Large Mason Cash Mixing Bowl

 

Step 1
Take 1 cup of whole oats and run through a grain mill on a fine setting to create oat flour.  

Step 2
Cut ends off zucchini and shred with a box grater. Take shredded zucchini and give it a good squeeze in your hands to get out any excess moisture. 

Step 3
In a bowl, mix zucchini with the diced onion, garlic, egg, salt and pepper. Sprinkle over oat flour a little at a time and mix in until everything starts to hold together. 

Step 4
Heat a large pan on the stove and add olive oil. As soon as the oil is hot, add a palm sized scoop of fritter batter to the pan and flatten with a spatula turner. Fry on each side for a few minutes, until each side is golden brown.
