The zucchini croquettes are tasty vegetarian bites, crispy on the outside and soft inside. To make this recipe, I grated zucchini and carrots, then formed a mixture by adding eggs, breadcrumbs, and parmesan. You can cook these croquettes in a pan, in the oven, or in the air fryer. Zucchini croquettes disappear quickly because “one leads to another”!

Steps
To make the zucchini croquettes, grate the zucchini and carrots, and place them in a bowl.
Add a pinch of salt and start mixing the ingredients. Then also add the egg.
Continue mixing, incorporate the parmesan, and then a sprinkle of oregano.
Finally, add the breadcrumbs and mix until you get a homogeneous and soft mixture that can be worked with your hands.
With your hands, take the mixture and form the croquettes.
Place the croquettes on a baking sheet lined with lightly oiled parchment paper. Pour a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil over the croquettes and bake them in the preheated oven at 400°F until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
Alternatively, cook them in the air fryer at 400°F for 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
Or in a pan, heat the oil, cook the croquettes, turning them gently until golden brown.
Serve the zucchini croquettes with a sauce of your choice. Enjoy!
