Tips:

  • When selecting zucchini, choose ones that are firm and have smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid zucchini that are too large or have blemishes, as they may be bitter.
  • Grate the zucchini using the large holes of a box grater. This will help to create a more even pancake texture.
  • Squeeze out as much excess moisture from the grated zucchini as possible. This will help to prevent the pancakes from becoming too soggy.
  • Use a combination of all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour for a healthier pancake. Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients to the pancakes.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the pancakes tough.
  • Heat a lightly oiled pan or griddle over medium heat before cooking the pancakes. This will help to prevent them from sticking.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot pan for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
  • Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, or fruit.

Conclusion:

These zucchini and onion pancakes are a delicious and easy way to use up leftover zucchini. They are perfect for a quick and healthy breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With their simple ingredients and versatile flavor, these pancakes are sure to become a family favorite.
