INGREDIENTS

  • 2 medium broccoli (550g / 19.5 oz)
  • 2 eggs
  • ¾ cup almond meal/flour (60g)
  • ¾ packed cup sharp cheddar cheese (75g)
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • ½ tsp salt (optional - do not add for baby)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. 1 Preheat oven to 375℉/190℃ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. 2 Cut the florets off the broccoli and break them up into medium pieces. Remove the tough outer skin of the stem and then cut the stem into pieces around 1-2 cm / ½-¾ inch in size.
  3. 3 Steam (or boil) the stems for 1 minute and then add the florets and steam for a further 3-4 minutes, or until soft. Drain well
  4. 4 Chop the cooked broccoli up and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
  5. 5 Add the cheese, egg, almond meal and garlic and mix well to combine. Mash any bigger pieces of broccoli up as you mix.
  6. 6 Scoop a heaped tablespoon of the mixture and form it into a tot. Place on prepared tray. Repeat with the remaining mixture (It should make around 23 -25 tots).
  7. 7 Spray with oil (optional) then bake for 20 minutes, or until golden.
  8. 8 Serve with a dip of choice.
