Here you go, PDS. I've been saving several over time. Wish I could remember the ones I've made, but they're pretty similar, easy & yummy. I like them with sour cream. Hope you'll see one you like.
Zucchini Pancakes
3 cups zucchini, coarsely grated
1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
salt and pepper
1 large egg, slightly beaten
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
1/4 cup vegetable oil, for frying
sprig mint, for garnish
Combine zucchini, garlic, salt, pepper. Add egg and stir lightly. Stir in flour. Heat oil in deep, heavy skillet. For each pancake, drop 1 heaping spoon of zucchini mixture into pan.
Flatten slightly with back of spoon and fry over medium heat about 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Turn very carefully and drain on paper towels. Stir mixture before frying each batch. If all the oil is absorbed, add a little more. Serve garnished with mint sprigs.

Zucchini Cream Cheese Pancakes
5 medium zucchini, shredded very finely
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 eggs
1/2 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 ounces cream cheese
Mix all ingredients together thoroughly. Heat skillet on medium heat and coat with vegetable cooking spray. Drop batter on skillet, brown on both sides. They can be buttered and sprinkled with Parmesan cheese or can be served plain.

Vegetable Pancakes - 8 servings (This might be Paula's)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
1 cup grated carrots
1 cup grated zucchini
2 green onions, sliced
2 tablespoons oil
In a mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, beat together the egg, milk, carrots, zucchini, and onions. Add this to the dry ingredients and stir until combined.
Using a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Pour the batter by tablespoons into the pan, making a few pancakes at a time. Cook about 2 minutes on each side and golden brown. Add the remaining oil to the pan as needed. Serve pancakes at once.

Poor Man's Crab Cakes
2 cups grated zuchinni
1 egg beaten
Old Bay Seasoning
1 1/2 cups Italian bread crumbs
1 tbsp mayonnaise
1/4 tsp salt
1 tbsp baking powder
Mix together, make 'cakes' and then fry till golden brown.
Wanted to mention too, you could experiment with adding chopped walnuts or shredded potatoes (or hash browns), chopped onions or carrots. I'd like to try making some carrot cakes (in place of the shredded zucchini) & perhaps adding raisins.
