Broccoli Cheddar Fritters
Healthy snacks don’t have to be boring or tasteless. Cheesy, savory, and flavorful Broccoli Cheddar Fritters not only give broccoli its good rep back, they’re legit addicting. I do recommend using a food processor to blend your broccoli, but finely chopping is a great way to relieve stress — silver lining! No matter how you prep these fritters, they’ll be a crowd-pleaser.
Elements
2 CUPS BROCCOLI FLORETS, FINELY CHOPPED
1/2 CUP CHEDDAR CHEESE, SHREDDED
1/4 CUP PARMESAN CHEESE, GRATED
1/4 CUP ALMOND FLOUR
2 LARGE EGGS, BEATEN
1/2 TEASPOON GARLIC POWDER
1/2 TEASPOON SEA SALT
1/4 TEASPOON BLACK PEPPER
AVOCADO OIL OR VIRGIN OLIVE OIL
Directions
Using a knife, separate Broccoli into 3-4 sections and chop stems from florets; discard stems.
Add florets to a food processor and blend or finely chop. You should have 3-4 cups of broccoli florets.
In a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients and stir until well-combined.
Spray a cast iron skillet with cooking spray (I use avocado oil) over medium heat.
Spoon a palm-sized amount of mixture into your hand and form into an even patty, not thicker in the center.
Sauté for 3 minutes and flip; repeat.
Serve with marinara, greek ranch, or cheesy garlic sauce.
