Instructions
Step 1
Begin by washing the zucchini thoroughly. Grate the zucchini using a coarse grater and place it in a bowl.
Sprinkle the salt over the zucchini and let it sit for about 10-15 minutes to draw out excess moisture. This step is crucial for achieving the ideal waffle texture.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, crack the egg and whisk it gently. Add the grated zucchini to the egg mixture.
Next, incorporate the flour, baking soda, and your choice of spices. Mix until the ingredients are just combined; do not overmix.
Step 3
Next, melt the butter and let it cool. Stir the melted butter into the zucchini mixture until well combined.
Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Once it's hot, pour an appropriate amount of the batter into the waffle maker and cook until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.
Step 4
When the waffles are ready, carefully remove them from the waffle maker. Serve them warm with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, yogurt, or more fresh herbs.
These zucchini waffles make a fantastic snack or appetizer. Enjoy your delightful creation!

Variations
🌟 **Gluten-Free Option:** Swap out regular flour for gluten-free flour, and you’ll still get that perfect crunchy texture. Just make sure to check the brand to ensure it has binding agents like xanthan gum included.
🌱 **Vegan Version:** To make these waffles vegan, simply replace the egg with a flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed mixed with 2.5 tbsp water) and use plant-based butter instead of regular butter. You won’t miss a thing!
Faq
- Can I use frozen zucchini for this recipe?
It's best to use fresh zucchini, but if you only have frozen, make sure to thaw it completely and squeeze out excess moisture before adding it to the mixture.
- Why do my waffles stick to the waffle iron?
Make sure to preheat your waffle iron and generously grease it with oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- How can I store leftover waffles?
Allow them to cool completely, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
- Can I add other ingredients to the waffle batter?
Absolutely! Chopped bell peppers, onions, or even cheese can add extra flavor and texture to your waffles.
- What if my batter is too runny?
If your batter seems too watery, simply add a little more flour until you reach the desired consistency.
- How do I know when my waffles are done?
Your waffles are usually ready when they are golden brown and crisp on the outside. Most waffle irons have an indicator light that will let you know when they’re done!
