Zucchini Tots

[judydawn]

These little morsels are from here, converted easily to the Thermomix with my variation making 20 snack sized bites http://www.skinnytaste.com/2012/07/zucchini-tots.html

1 medium zucchini (mine weighed 215 grams) cut into 5 cm pieces
25 gms spring onion cut into 3 cm pieces
65 gms tasty cheese, cubed
25 gms breadcrumbs, I used homemade
1/4 tsp chicken stock powder
1 egg
S & P to taste

Preat oven to 200 degrees Celcius.
Line a baking tray with baking paper.

Place zucchini and spring onion into TM bowl. Chop 2 sec/speed 5

Place the mixture into a clean tea towel or a chux and squeeze firmly until all the juice has been removed.

Place the mix into a medium sized bowl.

Add the cheese to the TM bowl and grate 4 sec/speed 7

Add the cheese to the zucchini mixture along with the breadcrumbs, stock powder, egg & S & P to taste.
Mix well until well combined.

Form dessert measuring spoonfuls of the mixture into tiny croquettes and place onto the lined tray.

Bake 15 - 20 minutes, keep an eye on them after the 15 minute mark. I didn't turn mine at all.

Footnote: These are even nice eaten cold so would be great for a child's lunchbox.

Sounds really good Judy, thanks for converting, need to give it a go... best part is that they need to be baked and not deep fried

Thanks thermilover.  I've just tried one cold and it's really nice served that way too.

These look good Judy, and even better that they are baked and not fried.

Made these for the freezer for the grandkids, GS has his friends over all the time so I told him I’d make some snacks for them. His Mum is always feeding them so it might take the pressure off her too.

I remember making these Judy.

I can’t remember what they tasted like cookie, I just hope the kids like them.
