In place of potato pancakes, try these cute rounds that are very simple to prepare with on-hand ingredients. Not only are they tasty, they're pretty, too. To eliminate some of the fat, I use a nonstick griddle coated with butter-flavored cooking spray. —Teressa Eastman El Dorado, Kansas

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup biscuit/baking mix
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2 cups shredded zucchini
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the biscuit mix, cheese, pepper and eggs just until blended. Add the zucchini and mix well.
  2. In a large skillet, melt butter. Drop batter by about 1/3 cupfuls into skillet; press lightly to flatten. Fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side.
