For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the batter. Squeezing out excess moisture from the shredded zucchini is crucial for achieving light and crispy puffs. If you don't have buttermilk baking mix on hand, you can substitute it with all-purpose flour and a teaspoon of baking powder. These puffs are best enjoyed immediately while they are still warm and crispy. Reheating may cause them to lose some of their texture.

Oct 9, 2023My puffs came out a bit soggy. I think I didn't squeeze enough moisture out of the zucchini. Will definitely try again!
