Baked Vegetable Fritters

If you're looking for low carb delicious vegetables that taste like it's fried, these are absolutely delicious and healthier alternative baked.

These are baked however you can air fry or pan fry them as well, I like to keep the calories down.

The one I made today is a combination of vegetables but you can use any of your favorite vegetables I will give you a list below that works perfectly.

These taste great plain served hot or cold so great for packing for school lunches or work lunches especially when you're counting carbs.

We love these with a medley of our favorite shredded vegetables together and they even taste great in a low carb wrap with a little salsa on top.

Vegetable fritters go great as a side dish with any meal.

Fritters:

Just the word fritter makes me think fried right, but not these, they're perfectly baked.


These are a win-win for health-conscious eaters with the big taste of fried without all the calories.


Of course, you can improvise and change this back to fried loaded with whatever you prerfer in toppings but we just love these baked vegetable fritters just the way they are.
