Air Fryer Zucchini Fritters (with Corn and Feta)
Made with just a few simple ingredients, these zucchini fritters are packed with sweet summer flavor from corn and feta. I make these in the air fryer, so they are quick to throw together. Best enjoyed with pesto mayo!
Ingredients
- 1 medium zucchini
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup flour
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 cup corn (from 1 cob or canned)
- ½ cup feta cheese
- 1 egg
Method
- ##Dry Zucchini:
- Use a box grater to shred 1 medium zucchini (use the largest hole setting). Transfer to a mesh sieve, sprinkle with ½ tsp salt, and let drain while you gather the rest of the ingredients.Squeeze moisture out of the zucchini by pressing it down with a spoon, then transfer to a few layers of paper towels. Pat dry. You should be left with about 1 cup of shredded zucchini per zucchini.
- ##Stir:
- Combine shredded zucchini with ½ cup flour, ½ tsp black pepper, and ½ tsp baking powder. Once fully coated, stir in 1 cup corn, ½ cup feta cheese, and 1 egg.
- ##Shape:
- Drop balls of the dough into your air fryer in ¼ cup-sized scoops (you may need to work in batches–my basket air fryer fits 5 fritters per batch). Lightly spray with oil and press with a spatula to create a thick puck.
- ##Cook:
- Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.Serve warm with your favorite dip (I love these with pesto mayo!).
