Add about half the batter (1 heaping cup) and spread it evenly into the pan. Cook until browned on the bottom side, 4 to 5 minutes. While the pancake cooks, break two of the zucchini blossoms apart into distinct petals. Place the petals in a flower pattern on the raw side of the batter, then flip the pancake over with a large spatula. Cook until puffed and evenly browned, 3 to 4 minutes longer. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the pan. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.\u00a0 Serve the pancakes piping hot, cut into eight pieces each. Note: You can reheat the pancakes in the microwave or on the stovetop, but they&#8217;re best fresh from the pan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zucchini Pancakes with Blossoms and Basil 1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon kosher salt \u00bd teaspoon baking soda 1 cup water 1 egg, beaten 1 cup grated green zucchini, from 1 medium zucchini (about \u00c2\u00bd pound) \u00bc cup packed fresh basil, very thinly sliced 3 tablespoons canola oil 4 zucchini blossoms &nbsp; Whisk the flour, salt, and baking soda together in a medium bowl.
