1/2 medium onion, diced fine (or just run it through the food processor with the zucchini.)
Pinch of pepper
3 tablespoons unflavored protein powder – I use rice protein powder – or CarbQuik
Instructions
Sprinkle the salt over the grated zucchini and let it sit for an hour.
Squeeze out and drain the excess moisture.
Mix in everything else, and combine well.
Spray a heavy skillet with non-stick spray, and add a good tablespoon of butter; heat over a medium burner.
When the skillet’s good and hot, fry the batter by the tablespoonful, turning each one once. Add more butter between batches, as needed, keeping the ones that are already cooked on a plate in a warm place. The trick with these is to let them get quite brown on the bottom before trying to turn them, or they tend to fall apart. If a few do fall apart, they’ll still taste incredible.
