Crispy, cheesy, low-carb rounds made with broccoli rice, cheddar, and almond flour. A perfect keto-friendly snack or side dish.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 16 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 (10oz) bag frozen broccoli rice* (about 2 cups)
2 cups freshly shredded cheddar cheese (not the pre-shredded)
1 large egg
2 tbsp almond flour
seasoning to taste (such as garlic salt)

Instructions

  1. Cook the broccoli rice per package directions. Drain and squeeze out excess liquid thoroughly; let cool.
  2. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. In a bowl, mix broccoli rice, cheese, egg, almond flour, and seasoning.
  4. Form mixture into about 16 small balls. Place on sheet and flatten slightly.
  5. Bake on center rack for 15 min until browning. Flip and bake another 8-10 min until crisp.
  6. Serve alone or with a low-carb dipping sauce.

Notes

  • *Fresh broccoli can be riced and cooked instead. Ensure broccoli is very dry for crispier rounds.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat in oven/toaster oven to maintain crispness.
