Super duper easy healthy carrot fritters made with only a handful of ingredients! Gluten free, dairy free and nut free. These veggie fritters are perfect for serving with eggs, your favourite dip or tossed through a salad.
Grate the carrots and place in a large bowl. Add in buckwheat flour, salt, pepper, dried parsley and egg. Combine thoroughly; it should form a thick lumpy mixture.
Heat a fry pan to a medium heat and add 2 tsp olive oil or coconut oil.
Scoop generous heaped tablespoons of the mixture into the pan and flatten into fritter shapes. Cook for about 3 minutes on each side. If they start to burn too quickly, reduce the heat.
Repeat with the remaining batter until done, adding a little extra oil to the pan as necessary. The oil helps to add flavour and a slight crispness to the fritters. Serve!
Notes
*the dried parsley is just a suggestion for seasoning. You could also try (i) a teaspoon of ground cumin or coriander, (ii) chilli flakes, (iii) finely chopped fresh coriander or fresh parsley, (iii) turmeric. *I'm sure you could probably substitute another GF flour for the buckwheat flour here - I just love buckwheat and always have it on hand. Alternatives might be brown rice flour, teff flour or just a plain GF flour blend.
