Vegan Zucchini Fritters

It’s National Fritters Day today, December 2nd. Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and packed with flavor, these golden vegan zucchini fritters are about to become your new favorite appetizer, snack, or light lunch. Fresh zucchini, a touch of garlic, and a simple chickpea flour batter come together in minutes, all without eggs or dairy. Pan fried to perfection in just a splash of oil (or baked if you prefer oil free), they’re naturally gluten free and bursting with garden fresh goodness. Serve them with a dollop of vegan sour cream, garlic aioli, or a squeeze of lemon. Either way, they disappear fast.

For Ingredients:

  • 3 medium zucchini (about 1½ lbs / 680g), grated

  • 1 teaspoon salt (for drawing out moisture)

  • ¾ cup (90g) chickpea flour (gram flour)

  • ¼ cup (15g) nutritional yeast

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 green onions, finely sliced

  • ½ teaspoon baking powder

  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

  • 2–3 tablespoons olive oil (for frying)

For the full recipe and step-by-step instructions, check out the link below. The guide shows exactly how to squeeze the zucchini dry (the secret to ultra-crispy results), plus tips for baking instead of frying and three killer dipping sauces, including the creamiest garlic-herb vegan yogurt dip.

Grab your box grater and a hot skillet, these fritters cook up in under 10 minutes and smell absolutely irresistible while they sizzle. Perfect for summer potlucks, brunch spreads, or whenever you need a veggie-packed crowd-pleaser. Remember, food tastes even better when shared, so make a double batch and watch them vanish!
