Directions: |
Directions: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 a nut milk bag, fine tea towel or cheesecloth, then return to a clean bowl. You need to twist the zucchini tightly so that it is fairly dry. 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. |

Notes: Can substitute parmesan cheese for the goat cheese. If you do this reduce the amount of salt used. Can add a dash of hot sauce to the mix. Can use whatever sauce you like. Plum sauce works well.
To Store: Place cooled fritters in an airtight container and store for up to 5 days in the fridge. To Freeze: Use a freezer-safe bag or container and store for up to 2 months in the freezer. To Reheat: Make sure to thaw the fritters either overnight in the fridge or on the counter for about 30 minutes. Then simply reheat in the microwave. Or for a more crisp texture, bake them in the oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes, until warmed through.
