Pan Fried Broccoli Cakes
Ingredients
- 2 cups riced broccoli
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ diced onion
- ½ cup almond flour
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 3+ T olive oil
Instructions
Rice your broccoli head if you're making your own riced broccoli. Otherwise, proceed with the recipe using store-bought broccoli rice.
Combine the riced broccoli, eggs, and diced onion in a medium-sized bowl.
Blend the almond flour, cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper in a separate small bowl. Once mixed, stir into the broccoli egg mixture until well combined.
Preheat a large skillet to medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, drop the mixture by heaping tablespoons into the pan. Gently flatten with a spatula to form the broccoli patties.
Fry the broccoli fritters on both sides until browned and cooked through, this took about 2-3 minutes per side.
You'll need to cook the broccoli cakes in batches of 4-5 in the pan at a time, and you can keep the cooked broccoli cheese fritters warm in the oven on 250F by putting them on an oven-safe platter and covering them with foil.
Add a little more olive oil to the pan if needed.
Serve plain, with sour cream, or your favorite dressing
Serves 4 as a side dish.
