Cheesy Roasted Broccoli Patties

Category: Broccoli

These are delicious patties with cheese and panko breadcrumbs for some crunch. Then roasted until they were browned and crunchy, yet cheesy in the middle. Roasting the broccoli made it taste nutty and extra good.

Makes 8 broccoli patties

2 teaspoons vegetable oil -
2 cloves garlic - minced
1/2 onion - chopped
1 (12 ounce) bag frozen broccoli - defrosted
3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs -
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese -
1/3 cup parmesan cheese -
2 eggs - beaten
Salt/pepper -

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.

Heat the oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add in the garlic and onions. Season with salt/pepper to taste. Saute until onions and garlic are tender. Set aside to cool.

Add the broccoli to a kitchen towel. Wrap the towel around the broccoli and squeeze out the extra moisture. Pour the drained broccoli into a large bowl.

To the same bowl, add the panko, the cooled onion/garlic mixture, the cheeses, eggs, and salt/pepper to taste (I used 1/2 teaspoon of salt).

Mix together and form into patties. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
