⏲ How to make zucchini bites

This is an overview of the recipe’s instructions. The full instructions can be found in the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

  • Preheat Oven And Prep Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Squeeze Out Liquid From Zucchini: Place shredded zucchini in a nut milk bag or in a kitchen cloth and squeeze until all of the excess liquid is removed. Discard the liquid.
  • Mix Ingredients: To a mixing bowl, add the shredded zucchini, eggs, grated Parmesan, shredded cheddar, ground sunflower seed meal or almond flour, and spices. Using a spoon or an electric mixer, mix all of that together until well combined.
  • Prepare And Bake Bites: Spoon about 1 Tablespoon of the mixture out from the bowl and form into a tot shape. Transfer each zucchini bite to your prepared baking sheet and bake until golden, about 16-18 minutes, flipping each zucchini bite over halfway through bake time.
  • Serve: Serve on their own or with desired dipping sauces.

πŸ‘‰ Ingredient substitution suggestions

  • Eggs: Make this recipe egg-free by making a flax egg. Make one by mixing together 2 Tablespoons of ground flax seeds with ΒΌ cup + 2 Tablespoons (3 ounces) of water. Set the mixture aside for about 5-10 minutes until the mixture thickens, then use the flax egg in place of the egg in this recipe.
  • Grated Parmesan Cheese: Shredded Parmesan cheese will work, but if you go this route, I suggest skipping forming the zucchini bites into a tot shape and just flattening them. This is because the shredded Parmesan will make the bites harder to form into a tot shape, and it’ll be easier to just spoon some of the mixture onto your prepared baking sheet and then gently flatten.
  • Shredded Cheddar Cheese: Use shredded Monterey Jack or shredded Mexican blend cheese in place of shredded cheddar.
  • Ground Sunflower Seed Meal: Almond flour can be substituted at a 1:1 ratio. White flour should also be able to be subbed in at a 1:1 ratio (note that I have not tested this). Another option is to use 1-2 Tablespoon(s) of bread crumbs.

✨ Variations

  • Add a handful or two of finely chopped steamed broccoli to increase the veggie content.
  • Add a handful of crispy bacon crumbles to the zucchini mixture for added flavor and texture.
  • Add a little spice by sprinkling in β…› teaspoon of ground cayenne pepper.

γ€° How to serve

➜ Cooking and recipe tips

  • Shred the zucchini in a food processor or with a box grater. It can be shredded as roughly or finely as you’d like. I like the bites to have some texture, so I use the side of my box grater with large holes.
  • Squeeze out as much liquid from the shredded zucchini as you can. The drier it gets, the crispier the bites will be when baked.
  • You can make the zucchini bites into a tot shape, or you can just gently flatten them. They can also be made a little thinner or thicker than you see in the photos; they’ll work either way.

πŸ’¬ FAQs

How should the zucchini bites be stored?

Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Eat cold or reheat on the stovetop over medium heat, in the oven at 425 degrees, or in the microwave in 30-second increments until warmed throughout.

Can these zucchini bites be frozen?

Yes, these freeze really well. Allow them to fully cool then store them in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 3 months. Allow them to thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating on the stovetop, in the oven, or in the microwave.
