Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour Feel free to substitute with whole wheat or almond flour.
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 medium zucchini, grated Squeeze out excess moisture.
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil Plus extra for greasing the skillet.
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Wash the zucchini thoroughly and grate it using a box grater or food processor. Squeeze out excess moisture with a clean cloth.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk and olive oil. Whisk until fully combined.
  4. Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
  5. Fold in the grated zucchini gently into the batter.
Cooking
  1. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat, lightly greased with olive oil.
  2. Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Serving
  1. Serve warm with your favorite toppings, like honey, maple syrup, or yogurt.

Notes

For better texture, always squeeze out excess moisture from grated zucchini. Substitute half of the flour with whole wheat flour for a healthier option. Add spices for extra flavor.
