I had planned to make some Zucchini Fritters. I often visit the farmers market in my area, where all the vibrant produce looks so enticing that I often find myself buying more vegetables than I truly need. The Zucchini and vegetable variety available is simply irresistible!
These delicious zucchini fritters can be prepared either in a Skillet or an Air Fryer.
Skillet Option:
Begin by adding vegetable oil to the pan and heating it over medium heat. Once hot, drop in the Zucchini mixture using a large spoon and gently flatten each fritter. Fry for about 2 to 3 minutes until they are lightly golden brown on one side before flipping them over.

2 Air Fryer Option
Recently, I’ve been steering clear of fried foods and instead using my Air Fryer to whip up some delicious and healthier recipes. To start, simply spray each side of the fritters with a light coating of avocado oil for added flavor and crispiness that will make them truly irresistible.Place Zucchini patties in Air Fryer at 350 F for 10 min , flip over and air fry another 10 to 15 min.
