Total Time 30 minutes
Servings: 8 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups broccoli florets finely chopped or grated
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil for cooking

Method
 

Finely chop or grate the broccoli and place it in a large bowl.
    Add eggs, cheese, flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
      Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
        Scoop about 2 tablespoons of mixture per fritter into the skillet and flatten slightly.
          Cook for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
            Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and serve warm.

              Notes

              If the mixture feels too wet, add an extra tablespoon of flour. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or air fryer for the best texture.
