Yield 8 fritters
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces broccoli florets
  • ½ cup shredded Parmesan
  • ⅓ cup almond flour
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ cup diced onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Avocado oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. Add all of the ingredients except for the avocado oil to a food processor and process until you have a mostly coarse crumb-like mixture.
  2. Heat a large heavy bottomed skillet, such as cast iron, over medium heat. Add enough avocado oil to lightly cover the bottom of the pan and heat until shimmering.
  3. Use a large cookie scoop to scoop out a ball of the fritter mixture and be sure it's compacted together tightly. Drop it gently into the pan.
  4. Cook for 1-2 minutes to allow the bottom to brown and then carefully flip the fritters and press them flat with a spatula.
  5. Continue cooking to brown the other side, 1-2 minutes, before removing to a paper towel lined plate.
  6. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Notes

Using a cookie scoop works best as it allows you to pack together the broccoli mixture. If using a spoon, use your hands to compact the mixture into a ball as best you can.

Serve with ranch dressing or ketchup, if desired.
