Notes
- Zucchini: We always go for the small to medium zucchini as they are more tender and flavorful. You can also swap in yellow squash (or use a mixture!) if you prefer.
- Flour: You can use either regular flour or a nut flour…we find that almond flour works best if you want to go for a nut flour.
- Egg: We always use extra large eggs in our recipes, but any size egg will work.
