Not only is the ingredient list for these fritters super short but with chickpea flour costing less than 3 a bag, theyre also easy on the bank account. Thats what I like to call a win. To make them all you need is one bowl and a skillet. You combine the shredded zucchini with the corn, chopped green onion, minced garlic, chickpea flour, and seasonings.
