Instructions
Wash and grate your zucchini, yellow squash and sweet potato.Chop your red pepper and green onion.In a blender, toss in your cashews, water, garbanzo flour, apple cider vinegar and salt. Blend until super creamy. In a large bowl place your squash, zucchini, sweet potato, pepper and onion.
Add the remaining ingredients and your cashew mixture. Carefully fold together until well mixed.
Heat a skillet over low-medium heat, add coconut oil and evenly coat bottom of pan.
Sprinkle a pinch of Garbanzo flour into the pan where you will be spooning on a veggie cake. This creates more crunch. Using 3-4 spoonfuls of your veggie cake mix, create a cake on top of your sprinkle. Repeat until you have 3-4 cakes in your pan.
Sprinkle garbanzo flour on top of all cakes.
Let each cake slowly brown in your pan for about 15-20 minutes on each side. Flip carefully by sneaking the spatula entirely under each cake before flipping. Once cakes are browned on both sides, you can turn up the heat a bit to brown further if you like. The slow browning on both sides binds the cakes very well.
Serve with a wedge of lemon.
