Fun and tasty way to serve zucchini! I don't care for raw onion so used a little more zucchini and some onion powder. We enjoyed them as-is but I think they would be great dipped in ranch dressing as well. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

My daughter and I didn't think these were so great. My husband liked them. I didn't put onion. I used a little chopped up green onion and two garlic cloves. No paprika! And a little more than 1 cup zucchini. Barely got 24 mini cups. I tasted the bread crumbs a lot. I think if you used more zucchini, say 2 1/2 cups they would be better. Mine burned a little and they were done at 17 minutes. I think they should be full to the top of the tray. Maybe it wouldn't taste so much like bread crumbs and they wouldn't have cooked so fast. They do look like the fried zucchinis from Carls JR but they certainly didn't taste like them.
