  1. Shred the zucchini and transfer to a paper towel. Squeeze all the excess liquid then measure to one cup packed full. Transfer to a bowl.

  6. Add the dry mix into the zucchini mix and fold to combine.
  7. Pour the batter into a greased doughnut pan and bake at 375°F degrees for 15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
