Summer is over and you still have loads of zucchini to use up. What do you make? You should make these zucchini and carrot fritters. My 3 year old absolutely loved these and kept asking for more. They're crispy, full of flavor, and barely taste like they're made of vegetables. I recommend using a large pan to fry multiple of these at once or set aside time to make these just like you would to make pancakes. I do not own an air fryer but if I did, I would try to air fry these as well. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as my family did!
