Zucchini Kale Fritters with Avocado Crema

Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Servings 8 cakes

Ingredients

  • 1 large zucchini (~2 cups, packed)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 small yellow onion
  • 1 cup shredded kale
  • ½ cup almond flour
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp sea salt
Avocado Crema:
  • ½ avocado
  • 2 tbsp goat cheese
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • pinch salt / pepper / olive oil

Instructions

  • Grate zucchini and squeeze out all of the excess water using paper towel or a thin dish towel. This is key! Do not skip this step.
  • Chop onion and kale into small pieces. Combine everything into one bowl until well mixed. 
  • Heat a frying pan over medium heat with your oil of choice. I used avocado oil (it has a higher melting point so it prevents the mix from burning). 
  • Form the mixture into small patties, and cook for about 3 minutes on each side. 
  • In the mean time, mix up all ingredients for the avocado crema in either a blender, food processor, or manually with a whisk. You really can’t mess it up so adjust the ingredients to your liking. Add in some water to thin it out if you prefer that consistency.

Notes

Storage: in an air tight container for about 3 days in the fridge. They’ll be best when reheated in a pan or in the oven to crisp up.
