  3. Add the grated carrots and zucchini, mixing thoroughly.

  2. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Grate veggies finely to blend into the batter. Freeze slices for up to 3 months and reheat in the microwave. Variations include removing eggs for vegan options or adding chocolate chips for extra sweetness.
