Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 medium zucchini, grated
- 1 small carrot, grated
- 1 large egg
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Warm a nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat while you prep the mixture.
- In a large bowl, mix oats, grated zucchini and carrot, egg, garlic, parsley, green onion, salt, and pepper. Let sit for 5–10 minutes.
- Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the hot skillet and let it shimmer.
- Scoop the mixture with a spoon and flatten gently into 3-inch-wide patties.
- Place patties in the skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crisp.
- Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Garnish as desired.
- Serve warm with your favorite sauce or salad.
Notes
- Squeeze out excess moisture from zucchini before mixing.
- Letting the mixture sit helps oats absorb moisture and bind better.
- Flip cakes only once for the crispiest result.
- Add chili flakes or shredded cheese for extra flavor.
