Zucchini Pancakes

Okay, this one is for all of you with a little excess zucchini, who might be a smidgeon tired of the grilled or sauted style.

I found the recipe in Woman's Day and it is called Zucchini Cakes, but I told the kids they were corn cakes, as they are getting tired of zucchini.


Zucchini (Corn) Cakes

1 shredded small zucchini (I used a little over a cup)
I box Jiffy cornbread mix
1 large egg
1/2 cup milk

Microwave the shredded zucchini on medium-high for 2 minutes and let drain. Mix the zucchini, cornbread mix, egg and milk together and let stand for 5 minutes.

Heat a little oil in a pan (or you could use a griddle) to a medium temp. Drop heaping Tbsps. of the batter into the pan. They cook quickly so keep a close eye on them and flip when done on the first side. When brown on both sides remove to a plate and cover so they stay warm. Serve warm. It makes about 14 pancakes. We just ate them plain and everybody liked them. I definitely will use this one again.
