Instructions:
- Prepare the Broccoli: Steam or boil the broccoli until tender. Drain well and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Finely chop the broccoli.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese, eggs, almond flour, minced garlic, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Shape the Croquettes: Take a spoonful of the mixture and shape it into a croquette or patty. Repeat until all the mixture is used up.
- Cook the Croquettes: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add enough cooking oil to cover the bottom. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the croquettes in the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Drain and Serve: Transfer the cooked croquettes to a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Enjoy: Serve the Keto Broccoli Croquettes warm as a snack or side dish. You can enjoy them as they are or with a keto-friendly dipping sauce.
