Time 24m

Yield 10 (3-inch) pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 medium zucchini (about 3/4 pound)
2 tablespoons grated red onion
2 extra-large eggs, lightly beaten
6 to 8 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Unsalted butter and vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Grate the zucchini into a bowl using the large grating side of a box grater. Immediately stir in the onion and eggs. Stir in 6 tablespoons of the flour, the baking powder, salt, and pepper. (If the batter gets too thin from the liquid in the zucchini, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour.)
  • Heat a large (10 to 12-inch) saute pan over medium heat and melt 1/2 tablespoon butter and 1/2 tablespoon oil together in the pan. When the butter is hot but not smoking, lower the heat to medium-low and drop heaping soup spoons of batter into the pan. Cook the pancakes about 2 minutes on each side, until browned. Place the pancakes on a sheet pan and keep warm in the oven. Wipe out the pan with a dry paper towel, add more butter and oil to the pan, and continue to fry the pancakes until all the batter is used. The pancakes can stay warm in the oven for up to 30 minutes. Serve hot.

ZUCCHINI BREAD PANCAKES



Zucchini Bread Pancakes image

When there is an abundance of zucchini in the peak of summer, one of the best uses is to turn it into a quick bread. We've taken that delicious baked good a step further and turned it into pancakes. The batter comes together quickly and you can feel good about eating zucchini for breakfast. Make sure you wring out as much water from the shredded zucchini as possible to prevent the pancakes from getting soggy.

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/3 cup walnuts
1 large zucchini (about 12 ounces)
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup buttermilk, at room temperature
1/3 cup dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg, at room temperature
Vegetable oil, for the skillet
Salted butter, for serving
Maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F and set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Spread the walnuts in a single layer on another rimmed baking sheet. Bake, shaking halfway through, until toasted and fragrant, about 35 minutes. Let cool, then chop. Do not turn off the oven.
  • Meanwhile, line a medium bowl with a kitchen towel. Grate the zucchini in a food processor using the grater attachment to yield 2 cups (see Cook's Note). Transfer the grated zucchini to the towel-lined bowl and gather the sides to make a bundle. Squeeze out as much liquid from the zucchini as possible. Discard the liquid and set the zucchini aside.
  • Whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and kosher salt in another medium bowl.
  • Whisk together the buttermilk, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla and egg in a large bowl. Stir in the grated zucchini. Fold in the flour mixture until just combined. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and lightly grease with vegetable oil. Ladle 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet to make a pancake (the batter is fairly thick, so you may need to spread it a bit). Make 1 or 2 more pancakes, taking care to space them apart evenly. Cook until the edges begin to brown and bubbles break the surface of the pancakes, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to prepared rack and place in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
  • Serve the pancakes warm with salted butter, the toasted chopped walnuts and maple syrup.
