Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Wash and shred two medium zucchinis, then wring out the excess moisture using a clean dish towel or paper towel.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained shredded zucchini, one finely chopped onion, two beaten eggs, one cup of Panko breadcrumbs, and season with salt and pepper. Stir in freshly chopped dill, parsley, and mint.
  3. Scoop out the mixture to form small balls and flatten into patties about half an inch thick. Make about eight fritters.
  4. Preheat the air fryer to 370°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil. Place four fritters in the basket and cook for 10 minutes, flipping halfway.
  5. Serve warm with tzatziki sauce or your favorite dip.
