    Bump!
  • I recently came across a recipe for Zucchini tots and decided to give them a try. So so glad I did. They are so good and only

    Zucchini Tots
    yields: 12 mini muffins


    1 cups zucchini, grated
    1 egg
    1/4 yellow onion, diced
    1/4 cup cheese (cheddar or Parmesan work the best)
    1/4 cup bread crumbs - I used Italian style
    Salt and Pepper

    1. Preheat oven to 400F. Spray a mini-muffin tin with non-stick spray, set aside.
    2. Grate the zucchini and then place in a dish towel to squeeze out the excess water- like when using frozen spinach; if you skip this part, the middle of the zucchini tots will be really soggy while the outside gets crispy and no one wants that.
    3. In a bowl combine, the egg, onion, cheese, bread crumbs, zucchini, salt and pepper.
    4. Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, fill the muffin cups to the top. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the top is browned and set.

    Enjoy!


    Thanks! Looking forward to trying these!!

    Mmmmm! I love, love, love zucchini!!! It can be used so many different ways! Thanks for the recipe. I am going to try almond flour instead of bread crumbs to make them lower carb and gluten free. :)

    would cottage cheese work or baking powder?
