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

1 Large Head of Broccoli

2 Extra-Large Eggs

1/2 C Almond Flour

2 C Cheddar Cheese, Shredded

2 Tsp Garlic Salt (powder if you’re watching your sodium intake)

1 Tsp Black Pepper

Directions

  1. Using a knife, separate Broccoli into 3-4 sections and chop stems from florets; discard stems.

  2. Add florets to a food processor and blend or finely chop. You should have 3-4 cups of broccoli florets.

  3. In a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients and stir until well combined.

  4. Spray a cast iron skillet with cooking spray (I use avocado oil) over medium heat.

  5. Spoon a palm-sized amount of mixture into your hand and form into an even patty, not thicker in the center.

  6. Sauté for 3 minutes and flip; repeat.

  7. Serve with marinara, greek ranch, or cheesy garlic sauce.
