Here’s another wonderful recipe that focuses on the bounty of summer produce as the main ingredient…..ZUCCHINI!

Full of soluble fiber from zucchini, functional proteins from eggs, cheese & almond flour, antioxidants from Ras el hanout spice blend, & polyphenols from the olive paste & olive oil.

The Ras el hanout spice blend is a super flavorful blend made up of cumin, ginger, turmeric, black pepper, cinnamon, coriander, allspice & cloves, all with their own unique health benefits.

Note that a chaffle is typically made with cheese & eggs only, but I’ve tweaked the base to lighten it up & add some more flavorful ingredients
