Ingredients

  • 3 cups finely chopped broccoli florets 1 large head of broccoli
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 3 large eggs beaten
  • 3 tablespoons white whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

Make It Now:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the broccoli, cheese, eggs, flour, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir until well combined.
  • Spoon mixture evenly into the muffin tin, filling each hole generously over the top.
  • Bake for about 15 minutes, until set and golden. Let cool for 5 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of each one to help loosen from the muffin tin.

Notes

  • If you don't have a mini muffin pan, you can still make these in a regular-sized pan. Just cook them a little longer until they are set in the middle.
  • These can stick to a metal pan, so I've found the best way to clean it is to let it soak. Then, use a sponge to get into each part of the pan. Using a silicone pan would be much easier clean up, if you have one!
