Savory Zucchini Pancakes

Directions

1. Toss together zucchini, carrots, and salt in a colander in the sink and let sit for 10 minutes. Using a clean dish towel, squeeze out as much moisture from the vegetables as possible.
2. In a large bowl, combine the zucchini, carrots, and shallots. Sprinkle on the flour and lemon zest. Toss to combine. Add the eggs and mix well.
3. Heat about ½ tsp oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Scoop ¼ cup of batter into the pan and flatten into a pancake shape.
4. Cook until the pancakes are golden brown on both sides, flipping once, 5–8 min per side. Drain on paper towels.
5. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed. Serve with a dollop of yogurt. Serve immediately.
