2 large carrots, peeled and grated

1 tsp salt

6 green onions, sliced

3 eggs, beaten

1/4 fresh dill, chopped

2 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

1/2 cup almond flour

salt & black pepper to taste
3 Tbsp butter, melted
3 Tbsp olive oil

Toss zucchini and carrot with salt and let set in colander 30 minutes, then squeeze to remove excess moisture. Roll veggies in a cloth to dry.  

Combine the grated veggies, onions, eggs, and chopped herbs in a mixing bowl. Mix well then add the flour, baking powder and pepper. Stir well.

Combine the butter and oil. Heat a 12 inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the butter mixture to pan and coat evenly.

Add 1/4 cup of the zucchini batter, flattening the fritters with a spatula. cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through.
