Crispy Broccoli Tots are a guilt-free, nutrient-dense snack or veggie boosters for kids who love crunch. Made with real broccoli, almond flour, and a hint of cheese, they bake golden and crisp—no frying required.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 24 tots (serves 4) 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups riced broccoli (fresh or frozen & thawed)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil, for brushing

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix riced broccoli, Parmesan, almond flour, egg, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl until well combined.
  3. Form mixture into 1.5-inch tot-shaped cylinders (about 20–24 total).
  4. Place on tray, brush lightly with olive oil.
  5. Bake 18–20 mins, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp.

Notes

  • For vegan option, substitute egg with 1 flax egg (1 tbsp ground flax + 3 tbsp water) and use nutritional yeast instead of Parmesan.
  • For extra crunch, broil 1–2 mins at the end—watch closely.
  • Serve with maple-mustard, ranch, or mashed avocado.
