How to Make Barb's Zucchini Patties

  1. Grate 2 medium zucchini (about 2 cups grated), no need to peel unless the skin is tough. Remove large seeds if desired.
  2. Sprinkle grated zucchini generously with 1 teaspoon of salt.
  3. Let the zucchini sit for 15-20 minutes to release excess moisture. Then, thoroughly drain in a colander, pressing out as much liquid as possible.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the drained zucchini with 1 large egg (beaten), 1 cup Bisquick baking mix, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well. The batter will be relatively loose.
  5. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls (about 2 tablespoons each) of the zucchini mixture into the hot oil, forming patties about 2-3 inches in diameter. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Place the cooked patties on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
  7. Keep warm in a 200°F (93°C) oven until ready to serve. Enjoy!
