Can I freeze these fritters for later?

Absolutely! Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze them for up to 2 months. Reheat gently in an oven or toaster oven.

Are these safe for a 6-month-old baby?

Yes, as long as the fritters are soft and cooled down. The squishy texture is perfect for babies doing baby-led weaning. Just remember to omit any added salt for babies under 12 months.

What can I serve with these fritters?

They pair beautifully with a mild plain yogurt dip, a smear of avocado, or a simple low-sodium tomato sauce for a balanced summer lunch.

Squishy Summer Zucchini Fritters

Vegetarian · 6m+ / Toddler · en

These soft, easy-to-hold zucchini fritters are a summer lunch superhero! Packed with fresh grated courgette, a hint of mild cheese, and a sprinkle of dill, they pan-fry in minutes and are gentle on baby tummies from 6 months up.

Use spelt flour (Dinkelmehl) for a slightly nuttier, wholesome twist.
Make mini-sized drop fritters for younger babies to practice their pincer grasp.
You can swap the dill for mild parsley or a pinch of garlic powder if your toddler prefers different flavours.
