Zucchini Pancakes



Seeing as we are still enjoying zucchini season here, I thought I would share another wonderful zucchini recipe with you… Zucchini Pancakes! I discovered this recipe in a church cookbook that a Mennonite relative sent my way.  Our middle school daughter cooked these up last week for our dinner…one batch modified to be gluten free and one batch of the regular version…while her daddy fried up some sausage to go on the side.  An easy, tasty, and filling dinner!  (Not to mention a night off for the regular cook!)  Leftovers can be easily frozen and warmed up as a snack for quick lunch, an added bonus for those of us who need to keep gluten-free food on hand.  Enjoy!

Zucchini Pancakes

2 eggs, beaten
2 c. grated zucchini
1 c. grated Cheddar cheese
½ c. grated onion
2 C. Jiffy baking mix (we used gluten–free                Bisquick for the GF version)
Salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste
Oil and butter for frying

Melt oil and butter in skillet. Mix all other ingredients and drop by spoonfuls in skillet. Brown on one side, then flip. Press down, and brown on other side. Enjoy!

* There is nothing like a great church cookbook to get you out of your cooking rut. We have thoroughly enjoyed this collection of tried and true Mennonite dishes.  If you would like to order your own copy and support a great ministry at the same time, please contact  Aurora Mennonite Church  at auroramennonite.com.
