Waffles for Zucchini Season!
We have so many breakfast ideas here at Fit Foodie Finds and oh do we have a thing for pancakes and waffles. Today’s recipe is a seasonal summer breakfast recipe that involves whole grains, shredded zucchini, and chocolate chunks (cuz why not?).
What I love about this sweet breakfast recipe is that there’s actually a whole serving of veggies in them. These zucchini waffles are fluffy, tender, and perfectly cooked. We added a handful of chocolate chips (because why not) and serve them with maple syrup!
PS: try making these with any kind of summer squash!

Serving Suggestions
Store cooled waffles in an airtight container or gallon-size ziplock bag in the fridge for up to 3-5 days.
- Let the waffles cool completely.
- Wrap each waffle tightly with tin foil, removing as much air as possible.
- Freeze for up to 3 months.

First, preheat your waffle iron to medium heat.
Next, prepare zucchini by shredding with a cheese grater. Use a cloth or paper towel to remove as much moisture as possible by squeezing it out.
In a large bowl, mix together all dry ingredients. Then add wet ingredients, minus the coconut oil.
Melt the coconut oil and then measure out 2 tablespoons of melted coconut oil and add that to the batter and mix.
Spray waffle iron with coconut oil cooking spray on both sides. Then, scoop in about ⅔ cup of batter. Close the waffle iron, flip, and let cook for about 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes and 30 seconds (depending on how hot your iron is).
Serve with sliced banana and maple syrup.
- The batter should be a little thicker than pancake batter, but not too thick! Start with 1 cup of almond milk and add a tablespoon at a time if it’s too thick.
- To make pancakes: add about ¼ cup to ⅓ cup more almond milk to thin the batter out a little bit. Cook over medium heat for about 1.5 minutes per side.
