1-Prepare the zucchini: Start by grating the zucchini and removing excess moisture to keep your waffles from getting soggy. It’s a small step that makes a big difference in the final texture.

2-Mix wet ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the 1 large egg and 1/4 cup milk until well combined. This creates the wet base of your batter.

3-Mix dry ingredients: In another bowl, mix the 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder to form the dry ingredients.

4-Combine wet and dry mixtures: Add the wet mixture to the dry and stir until smooth, making sure there are no lumps. Then, fold in the 2 cups shredded zucchini gently.

5-Heat the waffle iron: Heat your waffle iron to medium and grease it with oil or melted butter before scooping in the batter.

6-Cook the waffles: Cook for 3 to 5 minutes until the waffles are lightly browned and crispy.

7-Serve: Once done, serve them warm, perhaps with a sprinkle of extra Parmesan.
