Cheesy crispy broccoli parmesan fritters. Here’s where I want to insert an evil chuckle.

This week, I had a houseful of children and fed them a variety of fritters without letting any of them know what an outrage it was that I was giving them vegetables.

without their permission or knowledge. We just referred to them as “Shrek pancakes” to fool them. Insert wicked laugh.

I must admit that Shrek pancakes are pretty dang tasty! (Crispy broccoli parmesan fritters)

These fritters are incredibly simple to make and are soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. You’ll adore these if you have a close relationship with your food processor.

The simplest way to cook is probably to just throw everything into a food processor. We are the ones who lack the time to make preliminary preparations.

Additionally, it is a tremendous plus to have your oven perform the work while you are preoccupied with chasing after small children.

They’re so simple that I created another video for you.

Prepare, form, and bake. not as cheesy as an infomercial, but similar.

Replace the flour in the recipe with almond flour to make these low-carb.

Spraying baked fritters with a thin layer of olive oil spray will help them turn out crispy like they were pan-fried beforehand.

  • Preheat oven to 400°F | 200°C. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
  • Chop the broccoli into florets. Discard the hard part off of the stem, and chop the stem also. Place the broccoli and stem pieces into a food processor and pulse a few times until the broccoli is chopped. Add in the eggs, onion, garlic, flour, and Parmesan. Pulse again a couple of times until well combined (about 5 seconds of pulsing). Stir the salt and pepper through the mixture.
  • Form 8-10 fritters on the prepared baking sheets, making sure they don’t touch each other. Spray with a light coating of olive oil spray.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes on each side until golden.
  • Alternatively, pan-fry in a nonstick pan over medium heat until golden on both sides.
  • Allow fritters to cool slightly before serving. Serve with ketchup, Greek yogurt, or fat-free sour cream.
