Air Fryer Zucchini Fritters
Skip frying and baking and make zucchini fritters in your air fryer instead. These zucchini fritters are crispy outside and tender inside, perfect for a weekend breakfast, snack, appetizer or side dish. Plus - they're only 3-4 WW points for two fritters!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 zucchini partially peeled, grated
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs fresh
- 1 egg
- 2 oz reduced fat feta
- 1/4 cup onion grated
- 2 tbsp fresh chives
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tbsp fresh dill chopped
- 1 tsp coarse sea salt
- 1 tsp pepper
Instructions
- Peel about half the skin off the zucchini keeping some for the green color.
- Grate zucchini and onion on a cheese grater
- Place zucchini and onion in cheesecloth or in a kitchen towel and squeeze the water out. Once you give it a good squeeze - open and loosen - then squeeze again.
- For the breadcrumbs, I just broke up 2 slices of bread and placed in the blender to chop up. These were fewer points than regular breadcrumbs - but you can use either.
- In a mixing bowl, mix together all the ingredients with a spatula
- Make 8 patties with the mixture and lay on a cutting board. Place in freezer for 20 minutes.
- Remove patties from freezer and place in air fryer. Spritz lightly with olive oil.
- Air fry at 375 for 5 minutes. Flip, spray with OO and air fry additional 7-10 minutes.
- Serve with Tzatziki or Ranch
