Begin by preparing the vegetables. Thinly slice the cabbage, and julienne the carrot and zucchini into matchstick-sized pieces. Chop the green onions finely.
In a large bowl, combine the sliced cabbage, julienned carrot, and zucchini. Add the chopped green onions to the mix.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, tapioca flour, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Add the eggs and coconut milk to the dry ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter over the vegetable mix and stir until all the vegetables are evenly coated.
Heat coconut oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, drop spoonfuls of the vegetable batter into the pan, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon to form fritters.
Fry the fritters in batches, cooking each side for about 3-4 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Once cooked, transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to remove any excess oil.
Serve warm as a delightful paleo-friendly snack or side dish.
