  1. Preheat oven to 400° F.
  2. Grate the zucchini with a cheese grater  or food processor.

  4. Grate the onion and add to the bowl.
  5. Place macadamia nuts, sea salt, lemon juice, and water in food processor and puree until smooth. Should resemble ricotta cheese.
  6. Add the eggs, macadamia nut puree, almond (or coconut) flour, and spices to the bowl with the zucchini and mix until evenly incorporated.
  7. To bake: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spoon tablespoon-sized amounts of the mixture onto the baking sheet.
