How to Make Baked Zucchini Balls Gluten Free

1. Grate 2 medium zucchini using a box grater or food processor.
2. Place the grated zucchini in a large bowl, add 1/2 teaspoon salt, and let sit for 30 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
3. Thoroughly squeeze out as much liquid as possible from the zucchini using your hands or a clean kitchen towel.
4. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil and lightly grease with cooking spray.
5. In a separate bowl, combine the squeezed zucchini with 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs, 1 large egg, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley or dill), 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well.
6. Shape the mixture into 1-inch balls.
7. Lightly coat the balls in 1/4 cup gluten-free flour, shaking off any excess.
8. Arrange the zucchini balls on the prepared baking sheet.
9. Bake for 20 minutes.
10. Broil for 2-3 minutes, keeping a close eye, to brown the balls. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
11. Remove from oven and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
