How to Make Zucchini Fritters on Blackstone Griddle

• Step 1 – Shred the zucchini with a box grater and place it in a large bowl.  Stir in 1 teaspoon – Salt.  Set aside for 10 minutes.

• Step 2 – After this time, use your hands to squeeze as much liquid as possible out of the zucchini.  Then place the zucchini in a large mixing bowl. 
• Step 3 – Then stir in the flour, eggs, green onions, baking powder, remaining salt and pepper.

• Step 6 – Scoop the zucchini batter onto the grill using a ¼ cup measuring cup. Gently press the mixture down to flatten out the patties. 

• Step 7 – Cook each of the patties for 2-3 minutes until the fritter is golden browned.  Flip and cook the other side for 2-3 more minutes. Watch them closely as they cook so that they do not burn. 

• Step 8 – Remove from the grill and place on a baking sheet lined with paper towels.  
• Step 9 – Continue this process until all the fritters are cooked.  
• Step 10 – Serve topped with the sour cream and enjoy.

Recipe Tips

• Preparing Zucchini – We used a cheese grater to thinly slice the zucchini with the large holes of a box grater. But you can also use a food processor.
• Remove Liquid – It is best remove as much liquid from the shredded zucchini for the best fritters. We like to use a kitchen towel for best results.
• Use Measuring Cup – To ensure that zucchini fritters are about the same size, we recommend using a measuring cup to pour on the griddle.
• Cooking Time – Cooking time will vary depending on the size of your fritters and the temperature of your griddle.
