Zucchini Tortillas
These zucchini tortillas are soft and pliable and a creative way to use zucchini. They can also be made low carb and keto-friendly.
Ingredients
- 1 lb zucchini, shredded
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs or superfine almond flour, see notes for other substitutions
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat to 375F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Using a cheesecloth, wring dry the zucchini in small batches. I separated into 10 batches. You should be left with approximately 1 packed cup of zucchini when you are done.
- Place zucchini in a large bowl. Add eggs, breadcrumbs/flour, cheese, onion powder, garlic powder, salt. Mix until everything is completely combined.
- Scoop up 1/4 cup of zucchini batter. Place onto prepared baking sheet. Place 4 zucchini batter mounds on each baking sheet, spacing them far enough apart so that you can form 5 inch circles.
- Flatten each mound until it forms a 5 inch circle. Place baking sheets into oven and bake for approximately 20 minutes or until edges turn a golden brown and surface also has browning. Let the zucchini tortillas cool before removing.
Notes
- Slightly adapted from Eating Well
- Make sure you wring dry the zucchini in small batches to get rid of as much moisture as possible. If you zucchini is not dry enough, the batter will be too wet to work. I dried the zucchini in 10 small batches/clumps.
- I use this cheesecloth.*
- Instead of almond flour, you can use all purpose flour, breadcrumbs, pork rind breadcrumbs or gluten free flour or breadcrumbs.
- Instead of mozzarella cheese, you can use other cheeses like parmesan or Monterey jack. Make sure you use pre-shredded cheese because pre-shredded cheese has less moisture than freshly shredded cheese.
