They are all natural, made no refined flours or sugars using just 4 simple pantry staples. All you need to get your fabulous fritter fix is – eggs, carrot, zucchini and coconut flour.
Oh and a good pinch of salt and pepper but I don’t really count those as ingredients, do you?!
Either way these fantastic fritters are made with just a handful of ingredients that I bet you have on hand already.
They are super quick and easy to prepare coming together, from start to finish, in well under 30 minutes.
And, they also happen to be naturally gluten free and paleo friendly.
But the most important thing is that they really are seriously, and I mean SERIOUSLY, delicious and you need them in your life like, yesterday!
Eat them simply as they are, serve them with some garlicky greens ( like so ), and some crispy baby taters, maybe pop an egg or two on it and have yourself one seriously incredible breakfast. Or lunch. Or dinner (brinner = winner 🎉🎉🎉 )
Delicious, nutritious, seriously satisfying!
Now, if you’re in the mood to kick things up a notch you might want to go ahead and add a dollop of coconut or Greek style yogurt, a splash or two of your fave hot sauce, some chili, a sprinkling of coriander (cilantro) and a whole lot of freshly ground black pepper then stack em’ up and dive on in . . .

Quick and Easy Carrot and Zucchini Fritters
{Gluten Free & Paleo}Makes approx 8 – all natural, quick and easy, light and fluffy, seriously flavorful carrot and zucchini fritters
Ingredients –
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups grated zucchini – approx 1 large
1/2 cup grated carrot – approx 1 medium
1 Tablespoon coconut flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1-2 scoops of Vital proteins unflavored collagen peptides – optional for an extra dose of protein and gut healing goodness
Optional for serving –
Red Chili, finely sliced
Coconut cream or Greek style Yogurt
Coriander (Cilantro)
Your favorite hot sauce
A squeeze of fresh lime
Method –
1 – Place eggs into a medium size bowl and lightly whisk.
2 – Add coconut flour, salt and pepper whisk again to combine.
3 – Place your grated zucchini and carrot into a clean piece of muslin or dishcloth and twist and squeeze to ring out any excess moisture.
4 – Add your zucchini and carrot to your egg mix and stir to combine.
5 – Cook your fritters in a medium size skillet or fry pan over medium heat with a little coconut oil (or cooking fat of choice) . It’s up to you how big or small you want to make your fritters. I like mine to be on the smaller side and use a small ladle which is roughly 3 Tablespoons batter per fritter and get 8 each time. Keep in mind the bigger they are the harder they will be to flip 😉
6 – Allow your fritters to cook for 1-2 minutes, until the edges are set/nice and dry, then flip and cook for another minute.
7 – Transfer to a wire rack while your repeat this process with remaining batter.
8 – Serve hot or cold with a dollop of coconut cream or Greek style yogurt, a couple of slices of chili, a sprinkling of fresh coriander (cilantro), a splash or two of your fave hot sauce, a cheeky squeeze of fresh lime juice a whole lot of freshly ground black pepper! YUM!!!
These fritters will keep well in the fridge for up to 7 days, are 100% freezer friendly and reheat like a dream – so much to love I tell you.
Enjoy xo
