2. Air Fryer Fried Zucchini
2 zucchini's Sliced about 1/4 inch thickness
Flour in one bowl and Bread Crumbs in another
2 eggs beaten
Dredge a slice at a time in the flour and then tap excess off then dredge in egg mixture.. then dip in bread crumbs. I did enough to go into my Air Fryer then placed the covered zucchini in the air fryer without edges touching..
Heated the Air Fryer to 400 degree F up then placed the tray into the air Fryer for 6 minutes then removed it and turned the tray full and then fried it for another 6 minutes.. As those are being fried finish the rest of the zucchini dredging in the flour then the egg then the bread crumbs.. After it was complete served it with Ranch Dressing, or the dressing of your choice..
3. Zucchini Cake
3 Eggs, beaten
1 C. Vegetable Oil
2 C. Sugar
2 tsp. Vanilla
2 C. Flour
3 tsp. Cinnamon
2 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Salt
½ tsp. Baking Powder
2 C. Zucchini, coarsely ground
Combine eggs, oil, sugar and vanilla. Mix well. Combine dry ingredients and add to oil mixture, mixing well. Stir in grated zucchini. Pour batter into greased and floured 10” Bundt pan, you can also use a 9X13, just adjust your time. Bake at 350 for 55 – 60 minutes if using the Bundt pan. Allow to cool for 20 minutes before removing from pan. Really good by itself, or with a cream cheese icing.
No mixer needed, just a whisk. I have also used a 9 X 13 pan and lessened the time. This is really tasty; lots of cinnamon flavor.
