Comments:

I discovered these pancakes last summer when my friend Sarah Brown brought them to our Relief Society potluck luncheon. I couldn't get enough of these (especially covered in marinara sauce)! At the time, I had tons of zucchini on my hands, so this was a really yummy alternative to sauteing zucchini or using it in pasta or bread.
