#EATFIT with Raimee

Fresh, healthy and tasty!

This Zucchini Pancake recipe by Raimee Leigh Brook (@raimeeleigh.fitfood) is the perfect way to kick start your day the right way!

Ingredients:

1 medium zucchini (150g without liquid)
1/2 cup chickpea flour
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp savoury yeast flakes
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp of apple cider vinegar
Water as needed

Method:

Grate the zucchini and squeeze out as much liquid as you can.
Place all dry ingredients into a mixing bowl, then add vinegar.
Slowly add water until you get a thick pancake like consistency. You do not want it to be too runny.
Pour the batter onto a low heat, lightly greased pan into the size of pancakes you would like. The smaller the quicker they cook.
Once you see the edges turn a golden colour flip and let the other side cook for a minute.
You can have them just as they are, but I like to add some healthy sides! For example, some spinach, avocado and eggs.
