Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and shred the zucchini. Squeeze out excess moisture using a kitchen towel.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the drained zucchini, minced garlic, chopped parsley, grated Parmesan, bread crumbs, salt, pepper, and beaten egg. Mix thoroughly.
  3. Scoop the mixture into small balls, about the size of a golf ball, and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway to ensure even cooking until golden brown.
  5. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for an additional 5 minutes for extra crispiness, if desired.
  6. Cool for a few minutes, then serve warm with dipping sauces.
