Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 zucchini, grated
1 carrot, grated
salt, or to taste
3 slices bacon
½ onion, finely chopped
1 egg
¼ cup almond flour
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
2 tablespoons coconut oil

Steps:

  • Sprinkle zucchini and carrot with salt and drain in a colander.
  • Place bacon in a skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Crumble into small pieces.
  • Cook and stir onions in the same skillet over medium heat until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Rinse zucchini and carrot; remove excess liquid by squeezing through cheese cloth or paper towels.
  • Place zucchini, carrot, bacon, egg, onion, almond flour, garlic, and Italian seasoning in a large bowl. Mix evenly. Form a 1/2-inch thick patty using 1/4 cup of the mixture. Repeat with remaining patty mix.
  • Heat coconut oil over medium-high heat and cook patties until browned, about 4 minutes per side.
