- 12 zucchini blossoms
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- Gently dip zucchini blossoms in beaten egg and shake off the excess. Press into flour; coat with bread crumbs. Place breaded blossoms on a plate; do not stack.
- Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry blossoms, working in batches, until both sides are golden brown, about 5 minutes each side. Season with salt and black pepper.
