Instructions
Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking during baking.
Make the Mixture
Combine the finely chopped broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, and salt in a large bowl. Crack in the eggs and mix everything together until a sticky uniform mixture forms.
Shape and Arrange
Scoop about one tablespoon of mixture at a time and press firmly into small oval or round patties about half an inch thick. Place them on the prepared baking sheet with a little space between each one.
Bake Until Golden
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, flipping each bite halfway through, until both sides are golden brown and crispy. Let them cool for two minutes before serving.
