Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium (about 300 g total) Zucchini
- 1 large (about 100 g) Carrot
- 3 stalks Scallions (Green Onions)
- 2 large Eggs
- 3 tablespoons Almond Flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic Powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black Pepper
- 2 tablespoons Coconut Oil (or Avocado Oil for frying)
Instructions
Wash and grate the zucchini and carrot using a box grater or food processor. Place the grated vegetables into a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible.
Finely chop the scallions (both white and green parts).
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the almond flour, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, and whisk until smooth.
Stir in the grated zucchini, carrot, and chopped scallions, mixing until all ingredients are evenly coated in the batter.
Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of the vegetable mixture into the skillet and flatten it gently with the back of a spoon to form a pancake about 3-4 inches wide.
Cook the pancake for 3-4 minutes on one side, then carefully flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side. The pancake should be golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the cooked pancake to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Repeat the process with the remaining vegetable mixture, adding the second tablespoon of oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve warm as-is or with a Whole30-compliant sauce or dip, such as guacamole or a drizzle of tahini.
