Baked Zucchini Cakes are a much healthier option to fried with the same crispiness. So quick to make and loaded with flavor, they are a great new way to serve this favorite veggie.
Baked Zucchini Cakes
I thought I would repost this recipe from a few years ago and update it with new pictures. I made these baked zucchini cakes to take to our Super Bowl Party at the request of my neighbor. She loves them and I love her so I made them just for her.
I saw a recipe in a magazine several months ago for zucchini cakes but I can’t remember which one. I tried my best to create what I could come up with from memory and absolutely love how they turned out!
They make a fantastic side dish or they are so amazing for lunch by themselves with a little plain Greek yogurt on top too. Just saying’.
INGREDIENTS, makes 9 cakes
2 small zucchini, grated
1 small onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp of basil
2 eggs
1 cup of panko bread crumbs or bread crumbs (I used Gluten Free)
1/4 cup of parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Spray coconut oil or other spray oil
How to Make Baked Zucchini Cakes
Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Grate zucchini and squeeze to remove water.
Combine all ingredients
Spray a baking sheet with oil.
Form mixture into equal sized patties
Bake for 15 minutes
Turn and bake for an additional 15 minutes until crispy, golden brown.
ENJOY!

I am going to try these for sure. My husband and I went out for breakfast a few weeks back and he had zuchini cakes (like you have here) as the base of a Eggs Benedict (instead of bread). At another time, I had cakes (as you have here) served with smashed avocado, bacon and a simple salsa. We loved them both, and decided to add that to our Sunday breakfast repertoire but haven’t got around to it cause frying cakes was a bit of a drag. Now I can bake them!! Thanks for sharing.

Sherri…These look so delish! I enjoy zucchini cakes for lunch on occasion and will definitely give these a try. Thank you for sharing at Monday’s Musings. Have a great week.

But actually, in my opinion, those are the best for baking . Just one huge zucchini will yield lots of cups of zucchini to freeze or use right away in a Zucchini Cake Recipe.

These sound so good! I’ve made something similar, but tried to fry them in a frying pan and they wind up falling apart. I’ll try baking these next time! Thanks for linking up with Merry Monday this week.

I could eat these vegetable sides you make every day! Thank you for the zucchini and Brussels sprout recipes especially. I hope you keep posting more recipes for delicious veggies that aren’t in heavy casserole style sides:)
Sherri says
Aww..thank you so much Judy!!
Joan says
Can you make ahead and reheat later or even freeze after baking.
Sherri says
I’m sure you could. I would heat them in the oven to re-crisp them just be sure 🙂
