Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchini, shredded
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1/4 cup fresh herbs, chopped (like parsley or basil)
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a large bowl, combine the shredded zucchini, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, chopped herbs, beaten egg, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  • Form the mixture into small patties or bites.

Cooking

  • If baking, place the bites on a lined baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through until golden brown. If using an air fryer, cook for about 10-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.

Serving

  • Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes

Make sure to squeeze out excess moisture from the shredded zucchini using a clean kitchen towel to prevent the bites from becoming soggy. Feel free to adjust the herbs and seasonings to your taste.
