Savory Zucchini Waffles
These Savory Zucchini Waffles make a healthy and delicious savory breakfast or brunch. Serve them as is or top with poached (or fried) eggs, sour cream, and/or a side salad.
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini (grated)
- 1 large egg
- ¼ cup onion (minced)
- ½ cup sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)
- ⅓ cup plain bread crumbs (or gluten-free plain bread crumbs)
- 1 teaspoon salt (divided)
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- Avocado oil spray
Instructions
- Place zucchini in a bowl. Sprinkle grated zucchini with 1/2 teaspoon salt and let stand for about 10 minutes, then squeeze out as much liquid as you can. Discard drained liquid.
- Combine all the ingredients and remaining salt in a bowl.
- Heat the waffle iron (I used a mini waffle maker), when hot spray with avocado oil and add 1/4 cup of the zucchini mixture and spread around.
- Close the iron and cook until the light shuts off and the edges are golden brown.
- Set aside and keep warm while repeating with the remaining batter and avocado oil spray.
