Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350℉ (175℃) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

  3. Scoop out about ¼ cup of the fritter mixture and flatten it to form patties. Place them on the prepared baking sheets.

  5. Mix together the goat yogurt and lemon juice in a small bowl, adjusting the seasoning.
