Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded zucchini
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup 2% milk
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • Butter and maple syrup, optional

Method

  • Place zucchini in a colander to drain; squeeze well to remove excess liquid. Pat dry.
  • Whisk flour, cheese, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt and pepper. In another bowl, whisk together eggs, milk and onion. Add to dry ingredients, stirring just until moistened. Fold in zucchini.
  • Lightly grease a griddle with cooking spray; preheat over medium heat. Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto griddle. Cook until bubbles on top begin to pop and bottoms are golden brown. Turn; cook until second side is golden brown. If desired, serve with butter and syrup.
