Goat Cheese Stuffed Zucchini Pancakes With Tomato Sauce

  • Yield: 4 to 6 servings (about 24 small pancakes)

Ingredients

  • 1 pound small zucchini, grated and squeezed dry in a towel
  • 1/4 cup grated yellow onions
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
  • 2 teaspoons chopped lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon chopped garlic
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1 (5-ounce) log goat cheese, very thinly sliced
  • Tomato Sauce
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, combine the zucchini, onions, basil, zest, garlic, salt, and pepper. In a small bowl, combine the flour and baking powder. Add the eggs and flour mixture to the vegetables and stir just until combined.
  • Heat a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 3 minutes. When hot, add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Add the batter by tablespoons into the skillet (making sure to spoon both batter and vegetables), leaving 1-inch between the cakes. Immediately drop a round of cheese into the center of each pancake. Top with another tablespoon of batter to enclose the cheese. Cook until golden brown on the bottom side, about 1 1/2 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook on the 2nd side until golden brown, about 1 minute. Remove from the pan and place on a baking sheet. Keep warm in the oven while preparing the remaining pancakes.
  • Arrange the pancakes on a platter, drizzle with the tomato sauce, and serve immediately.
