Broccoli Fritters


1 lb organic broccoli florets (from 1 large head broccoli)
2 large eggs
¼ cup oat flour, or ground oats
1 fresh garlic clove, minced
4 green onions, green parts only, chopped small
sea salt and pepper, to taste, about ¼ tsp each
2-3 Tbsp avocado oil, or olive oil

  1. Bring 1 inch of water to boil in a medium pot with a steamer basket.
  2. Add broccoli florets, cover and steam for 4-5 minutes. Once it's for-tender (don't allow to overcook), remove from heat, then let cool.
  3. Transfer broccoli florets onto a cutting board, and using a sharp knife, cut broccoli into very small pieces.
  4. Add the chopped broccoli to a large bowl, together with the raw eggs, oat flour, garlic, and green onions. Season with sea salt and pepper to taste and stir until well combined.
  5. Heat about 1 Tbsp of oil in a large nonstick pan over medium heat.
  6. Take about a large-ish spoonful of your broccoli mixture (a slightly overflowing Tbsp full), then flatten it between palms and place it into the pan.
  7. Repeat the process and cook about 4 fritters in each batch.
  8. Drizzle the pan with a touch more of oil in between each batch.
  9. Cook the fritters for 3-4 minutes, flipping them once in between.
  10. Serve warm with plain Greek yogurt, no-sugar-added ketchup, or homemade dip of choice such as Tzatziki sauce.

    Makes 12 fritters
