Turkish Zucchini Fritters

Serves 2 people

Vegetarian, Gluten Free

Total Cook Time: 45 minutes

Here’s our gluten-free and oven baked twist on the classic Turkish mucver! They’re usually eaten as an appetizer before a meal but  we personally love to make a large batch of these at the beginning of the week to snack on them at any time throughout the day. It’s easy to make and super light! These gluten-free fritters taste even better with a dollop of yogurt with minced garlic . Quick, easy, delicious and nutritious...what else could you want!
