Broccoli Feta Fritters

195

It’s all green to me with these broccoli recipes. I could eat these endlessly. This is one of my Original recipes I recreated and updated to share with my new friends on TikTok, etc. You can’t go wrong with this recipe. If you have some broccoli in your fridge, I urge you to create these! They’re great for breakfast, lunch, side dish, appetizer or snack time!

Ingredients:

Super basic ingredients in this one with gluten free substitutes too. For the all purpose flour you can sub in oat flour, almond flour or gluten free flour. It might need a tad bit more but mix it with the measurements below and you can always add in an extra tablespoon of flour if needed to bring the batter together.

The eggs are the main binder here and I’m not sure if the mixture would hold together with a substitute like flax eggs. If you don’t like feta, you can simply add in more mozzarella cheese. If you don’t like dill, sub in chives or basil. Serves perfect with some Tsatziki Sauce (although I enjoy them on their own).

The mixture might feel like it’s not coming together because of the broccoli chunks, but once you get it in the pan, it will converge and cook into a perfect fritter thanks to the cheese and eggs.

Thank you for swinging by HungryHappens! If you create this recipe or any other from our site, we would greatly appreciate you taking the time to comment and rate the dish! LOVE YOUR LIFE!!
