  3. Mix together baking mix, yeast, egg, garlic, salt and pepper together in a large bowl. Stir in zucchini.

  5. Scoop batter by tablespoon into hot skillet and fry until golden brown. About 3 minutes per side
  6. Set on a plate lined with paper towels and pat away excess oil.

 

Note: try topping with a bit of healthy ranch dressing or green goddess dressing.
