Description
Crispy outside and cheesy inside low carb broccoli cheddar rounds. A healthy, gluten free snack baked to golden perfection.
Ingredients
- 2 cups finely chopped steamed broccoli, well drained
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and brush lightly with olive oil.
- Steam broccoli for 4 to 5 minutes until tender. Let it cool, then chop very finely and press with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- In a large bowl, combine the chopped broccoli, cheddar cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, egg, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until a thick mixture forms.
- Scoop about 2 tablespoons of mixture and shape into small round patties about 1/2 inch thick. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
- Lightly brush the tops with the remaining olive oil for better browning.
- Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crisp on the edges.
- Remove from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes to firm up before serving.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Reheat in a 375 degree F oven for 8 to 10 minutes to restore crispness.
