June 9, 2025|Chickens, Goats, Livestock, Recipes

  Hey farm gals, it’s Kara from Lange Girl Farms! June’s zucchini season, and after 15 years of growing—naturally—I’ve got a fritter recipe that’s homestead gold. My garden feeds my horses, ducks, and me, and these crispy bites are a summer fave. Holistic, simple, and straight from my land—years of tweaking made ‘em perfect. Here’s how to fry up some farm girl goodness—let’s cook!

Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 2 cups grated zucchini (my garden’s bounty—grow with zucchini seeds – use my affiliate link to Zucchini Squash Seed Collection for Planting – Black Beauty, Grey, Round, Golden, and Cocozelle – Non-GMO Heirloom – https://amzn.to/40pZyQE).
  • 1 duck egg (or chicken) keeps ‘em coming.
  • ½ cup flour, 1 tsp baking powder, salt, pepper.

Oil for frying—use my affiliate link to get yourself a cast iron skillet – (Lodge 12 Inch Cast Iron Skillet with Red Silicone Hot Handle Holder – Pre-Seasoned Frying Pan for Stove, Oven, Grill & Campfire – Made in the USA – Durable, Nonstick Cast Iron Cookware – Black https://amzn.to/4lC9KOm) is my pick. Nothing better than a LODGE! 

Step 1: Prep the Zucchini
 Grate, salt, let sit 10 minutes—squeeze out water. My huskies sniff the pile; 15 years taught me wet fritters flop.

Step 2: Mix the Batter
 Egg, flour, baking powder, spices—stir ‘til thick. I add garden chives; my first batch was bland ‘til I learned flavor matters.

Step 3: Fry ‘Em Up
 Heat oil, drop spoonfuls, flatten—golden in 2-3 minutes per side. My minis neigh for scraps; years of frying nailed the crisp.

Step 4: Serve Hot
 Fresh off the skillet—sour cream or herbs on top. My ducks waddle in for crumbs; it’s summer love on a plate.

Conclusion
 These fritters are my June reward—15 years of zucchini perfected this. Make ‘em with your harvest; they’re farm girl bliss! Pin this for summer eats, and follow Lange Girl Farms for more recipes.
