Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Line a 14 x 20 baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
- Grate the zucchini and carrots, place in a large bowl.
- Add all the other remaining ingredients into the bowl and mix well.
- Take 1/3 cup of the zucchini fritter mixture and solidly pack it into the measuring cup, then plop the mixture down onto the parchment-covered baking sheet. Just ever so slightly flatten it out and tuck in any stray gratings. The fritter will flatten out a little as it bakes. Continue making fritters until you have used all the mixture, and then slightly flattened them out.
- Place the baking sheet into a preheated 400 F oven for 20 minutes, then remove the baking sheet from the oven, and while using a short thin-edged spatula carefully flip each fritter over, and place the baking sheet back into the oven for another 15 minutes.
- After 15 minutes, remove from the oven, allow to sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to firm up before removing and serving with the Ranch Dressing.
