@healthysweetsandeats: Jalapeno Cheddar Zucchini Corn Waffle Fritters 🌽🧇 If you’re trying to get more protein and veggies in without eating boring meals, you have to try these. They’re made with simple wholesome ingredients, come together right in the waffle maker and have 16g of protein with the crema included (11g without). Ingredients: Waffle Fritters (5 servings) 2 medium zucchini, shredded (about 2 cups) + 1/2 tsp salt to draw out moisture 2 eggs 1/2 cup cottage cheese 3/4 cup cheddar 1/2 cup fresh or frozen corn thawed 1 Jalapeño diced, seeds removed 2 scallions diced 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon onion powder 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika 1/4 teaspoon salt and pinch black pepper 1/2 cup chickpea or oat flour 1 teaspoon baking powder Cilantro Lime Crema 3/4 cup Greek yogurt 1/4 cup cottage cheese 1 cup packed cilantro 1 small Jalapeno, seeds removed Juice of one large lime 1 clove garlic 1/2 teaspoon salt Water to thin Directions: 1️⃣ Add all your crema ingredients to a high speed blender or food processor and blend until well combined. Set aside 2️⃣ Shred zucchini and sprinkle with salt to draw out moisture, let’s sit for 10 minutes then strain out all the water very well with a paper towel, set aside. 3️⃣ In a large bowl, combine whisked eggs, cottage cheese, cheddar, corn, jalapeño, scallions, and spices. Mix until well combined and fold in zucchini, chickpea or oat flour, and baking powder. Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes while your waffle iron preheats. Once pre-heated, scoop about 1/4 - 1/3 cup (depending on waffle maker size) of batter into waffle iron and cook until edges are crispy (might take a little longer than regular waffles). Repeat until all the batter is finished and place waffles on cooling rack so they don’t get soggy. Serve with Cilantro Like Crema and enjoy!

Do you think baking this on a pan would work for those who don’t have a waffle maker?
