Cook's notes
The better you squeeze the excess moisture out of the zucchini, the better the patties will hold their shape.
Do not make the patties too thick — this ensures they bake faster and more evenly.
Let the patties rest for 5 minutes after baking — this will make them even juicier.
Serve with Greek yogurt, a light yogurt sauce, or a fresh vegetable salad.
