Preparation
1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) on the top and bottom heat setting.
2
Wash the zucchini thoroughly and coarsely grate them using the large side of a box grater. Toss the grated zucchini with a little salt and set aside for 10 minutes.
3
Grate the cheese and peel the garlic clove, then finely chop it.
Make the Batter
1
Place the grated zucchini in a kitchen towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Then transfer to a bowl and mix with the cheese, garlic, and the remaining ingredients.
Bake the Zucchini Fritters
1
Spoon the batter onto a baking sheet using a tablespoon or ice cream scoop, forming 8 to 10 evenly sized mounds, and gently flatten them. Bake the zucchini fritters in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes.
Prepare the Feta Dip
1
Place the feta in a bowl and mash it with a fork.
2
Stir in the cream cheese and yogurt. Wash the chives and cut them into small rings, then add them to the dip and season with pepper and a splash of lemon juice.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Salt and Drain Your Zucchini Properly 🥒After grating zucchini, toss with salt and let sit for 10-15 minutes, then squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth—this prevents soggy fritters and ensures a crispy exterior.
- Use Parchment Paper and Oil Spray 📄Line your baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray or brush with oil before placing fritters to prevent sticking and achieve even, golden browning on all sides.
- Mix Cheeses for Complex Flavor 🧀Combine Parmesan and Pecorino (or add a small amount of feta directly into the batter) to create depth and umami—this elevates the fritters beyond a single-cheese blandness.
- Chill Batter Before Baking 🧊Refrigerate your fritter mixture for 20-30 minutes before shaping and baking to help the fritters hold their shape better and cook more evenly without spreading.
- Make Creamy Dip with Room Temperature Cheeses 🥄Bring feta and cream cheese to room temperature before mixing with Greek yogurt for a silky, lump-free dip that's easier to whisk and creamier in texture.
