- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions: - Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Prepare Broccoli: Steam or microwave the broccoli until tender. Drain any excess water and finely chop the broccoli into small pieces.
- Mix the Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese, grated parmesan cheese, almond flour, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Stir until everything is well combined and the mixture holds together. The almond flour will help bind the mixture and give it structure.
- Form the Bites:
- Using a spoon or a small cookie scoop, form the mixture into small balls or patties, about 1-1.5 inches in diameter. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the bites are golden brown and crispy on the outside. They should be firm to the touch and have a nice golden color.
- Cool and Serve:
- Let the broccoli cheese bites cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.
Tips: - Make sure to drain the broccoli well to avoid excess moisture, which can make the bites soggy.
- For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes or some chopped jalapeƱos for a bit of heat.
Storage: Store any leftover bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to restore their crispiness before serving.
