- 1 tbsp fresh dill or other fresh herbs, optional
desired toppings:

Instructions
- Grate zucchini into large bowl (I use a medium grater). Squeeze excess water out of zucchini (this should be about 1 cup). Stir in onion, egg, flour, baking powder, salt, cheese and any herbs until combined.
- Over medium to medium high heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter in large skillet. Drop batter by the tablespoonful into hot pan, flattening out to be 3-4 inches in diameter, 1/4-1/8 inch thick.
