cheesy roasted broccoli patties

by tijuana, 02/13/2013

the love for broccoli in my house is...divided. me and my girls will steam some broccoli, throw a little butter/salt on it them and eat a big o' HUGE bowl of it, content as can be. my boys? not so much. when the broccoli comes out of the fridge, they take off running in the other direction. at best, i can cut it up into little itsy bitsy pieces and stir it into some rice and my eldest son with eat it. but i had a plan. you can't mess with momma. i made these delicious patties with cheese and panko breadcrumbs for some crunch. then i roasted the mess out of them until they were browned and crunchy, yet cheesy in the middle. roasting the broccoli made it taste nutty and extra good. the result? no division now exists in the smith household! united we stand! 🙂

total Time: 45 minutes
prep time: 15 minutes
cook time: 30 minutes
yield: 8 broccoli patties

ingredients:

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 -

instructions:

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.

bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. flip and bake for another 15 minutes or until browned and crispy.

Those look really good! I’ll have to try them with my son, although he’s already a broccoli lover anyway.

- I have been making this for years with spinach or cabbage. My grandmother brought this recipe back from No. Italy. Only difference is she fried them not baked, but I like the idea of baked and will try it this way.

I like this recipe and will try it because i love broccoli but others in my family not so much they will like this because it has cheese me not so much but i was wondering if I left out the eggs and maybe add ground yellow split pea powder instead what will happen ?

jayne says: 02/17/2013 at 4:17 am
- hi jayne! i hope this recipe turns your family into broccoli lovers like it did mine. i’m not sure about the yellow split pea powder, as i have not worked with it. if you do try it with the powder, please let me know how it turns out. thanks!

YUMMY!!! My husband suggested these would be good with cauliflower too, so I doubled the recipe and used a bag of each.
Turned out great-thanks for the awesome recipe-I’ll def make it again soon!

Shirley Franklin says: 02/17/2013 at 7:38 pm
- yay! i’m so glad you enjoyed them, shirley. it’s so nice to hear about your using the cauliflower as well! several people have asked about substituting cauliflower and even spinach. thank you for commenting and allowing everyone else to know to know that the cauliflower option worked. 🙂

These are awesome and a big hit! Thanks for dropping these by the Favorite Things Party!

Melissa @Red, White and Blueberries says: 02/19/2013 at 4:56 pm
- yay, melissa! i am so glad you tried and enjoyed them! these patties are more popular than i thought they would be. btw, i LOVE your site. thanks for sharing my recipe, too! 🙂
  
  tijuana707 says: 02/19/2013 at 5:07 pm
I love veggies and this is a recipe that I would like to try. When cheese is involved, it has to be good. Cauliflower would be good also.

We may have met by chance…but we become friends by choice.

Simplee Sue says: 02/20/2013 at 1:02 am
- i agree, sue! please let me know if you try it. 🙂

Would these work with fresh instead of frozen? It would save me a trip to the store if so. 🙂

Tricia says: 02/21/2013 at 4:40 pm
- hi tricia! fresh broccoli can absolutely be used. however, to ensure that the broccoli is thoroughly cooked, i would blanch it or steam it first before making the patties. using frozen broccoli just helps you skip those steps. 🙂
  
  tijuana707 says: 02/21/2013 at 5:11 pm
  - Glad someone asked about using fresh! We have it growing in our garden and want to use it to make these, they look delish!!
    
    Lorie says: 06/23/2013 at 9:35 am
    - oh wow! broccoli fresh out of the garden. i am so envious of you! please let me know how you like the patties. thanks, lorie! 🙂

My husband like broccoli one way – in Beef and Broccoli. Lol. Maybe this will get him over his fear of broccoli. Pinned! Thanks for sharing at Two Cup Tuesday at Pint Sized Baker! Hope to see you there again on Monday night!

Karyn - Pint Sized Baker says: 02/23/2013 at 10:18 am
- hi karyn! i’m so glad you came by! i’m with your hubby on that one. i LOVE beef and broccoli! lol! well, if you end of making the recipe, please let me know. see you next week! 🙂

I found and loved romanesque (sp?) In Italy this year. I am going to make these using that product with some shaved truffles in it. I expect it will be fabulous! Thanks for sharing the original recipe

jan nave says: 02/23/2013 at 5:15 pm
- wow, shaved truffles! that sounds very delicious! you had similar patties in italy? it’s amazing how food travels and is recreated someway, somewhere. very interesting. thanks for stopping by. 🙂
  
  tijuana707 says: 02/23/2013 at 6:22 pm
I absolutely love the idea of these and couldn’t wait to make them. That said, either my oven runs REALLY hot, or 30 minutes is much too long for these to cook. Mine looked as though they were ready to come out after the first 15 minutes, and by the second, they were way over-done. I will definitely be making them again (with cauliflower, too) but adjusting the time. 🙂

Susan says: 02/23/2013 at 8:03 pm
- hi susan! i’m glad that you tried this recipe. since oven temperatures do vary, i’m glad you kept an eye out to see how they cooked in your oven. i have heard from a few readers that they used cauliflower and even spinach. i’m gonna try the cauliflower, too! thanks so much for stopping by. 🙂

  tijuana707 says: 02/27/2013 at 4:53 pm
I am very excited about this dish, but my biggest problem is coming up with a meal.

I am a beginner cook and I was wondering, what would you serve these with?

Amber says: 03/06/2013 at 10:50 am
- hi amber! thanks for stopping by. when i made these, i served roasted chicken and corn with these patties. another time i made them, i served
  steak and salad with them. i treated them like a regular side of broccoli. please let me know if you try them and what you decided to serve alongside. 🙂
  
  tijuana707 says: 03/06/2013 at 11:04 am
Made them last night. My picky girls loved them. They are healthy & delicious. I will ring the water out better next time & make sure the broccoli is cut up real small, think they will stay together better. I will use way more garlic since I don’t use salt. More parm cheeses too:) good stuff!

Renee says: 03/08/2013 at 1:19 pm
- thanks for the feedback, renee! i’m so glad your family enjoyed them. 🙂

These are delicious! Have you tried freezing the patties, then roasting them off from frozen for just a little longer? This is good using fresh or frozen shredded zucchini, too.

Ozark Becky says: 03/20/2013 at 11:07 am
- hi, ozark! thank you! no, i have no tried freezing the patties yet… we tend to eat them all. 🙂 please let me know how it works for you. thanks for stopping by!
  
  tijuana707 says: 03/20/2013 at 10:14 pm
Love the recipe and I can’t wait to try it. I almost ignored it because it was only written in lower case letters. Please work on your capitalization of the first letter in sentences and people’s names. Other than that I’d say you did a very good job with both the recipe and your presentation. Thanks for sharing!

William Turner says: 03/20/2013 at 10:05 pm
- thank you, william. i’m glad you did not ignore this recipe over lowercase letters. it happens to be my personal style. hopefully if you continue to follow my blog, you can look past that. thanks for stopping by and please let me now if you try the recipe!
  
  tijuana707 says: 03/20/2013 at 10:18 pm

I would love to try this but, am thinking that I might take it a little farther and add cooked white rice and chipped up cooked chicken. Now that sounds Yummy!!!

Ann says: 03/22/2013 at 10:48 am
- sounds good, ann. great idea!
  
  tijuana707 says: 03/22/2013 at 1:47 pm
If I’m not mistaken, you forgot to mention adding the onion and garlic to the mixture. I read it over, and I think I may be right. I’m sure most people will catch it, but some may not and forget to add those ingredients. I’m going to cook this tonight. I can’t wait to try it! 🙂

Liz says: 03/22/2013 at 3:52 pm
- thanks for catching that, liz! please let me know if you try them! 🙂
  
  tijuana707 says: 03/22/2013 at 4:40 pm
  - By the way, the recipe says “to the same bowl add the panko, the cooled garlic/onion, etc”
    
    Kathi J says: 09/09/2013 at 6:37 pm
Baked! When I first saw the picture I thought they where fried. Now I’m sure I’ll give them a try. I’m not a hugh fan of broccoli, but maybe this way…

My cute bride says: 03/24/2013 at 1:19 pm
- i know sometimes broccoli is not a favorite for most people! please let me know if you try the patties. i hope you like them! 🙂
  
  tijuana707 says: 03/24/2013 at 3:26 pm
Hi there! This looks delicious and I will have to try it soon. I’m going to try it without Panko crumbs (as much as I hate to leave that ingredient out). We’re counting carbs. I’m still laughing at William,s comment earlier about capitalization…. what a funny man!

Suzanne says: 03/24/2013 at 2:16 pm
- thanks, suzanne. please let me know how they turn out for you! 🙂
  
  tijuana707 says: 03/24/2013 at 3:24 pm
It’s ironic that my punctuation was incorrect on William’s name when I’m laughing about his comment about capitalization. That’s what I get!

Suzanne says: 03/24/2013 at 2:29 pm
- you crack me up, suzanne! 🙂
  
  tijuana707 says: 03/24/2013 at 3:24 pm
I followed all instructions except instead of making patties I put all the ingredients into a casserole dish, and baked for 30min at 400. It came out great! To make it healthier I used egg beaters, fresh broccoli (steamed fist) and reduced fat cheese. Came out great! Thank you for this recipie, it’s super easy- and makes a great week night staple 🙂

Lauren says: 03/24/2013 at 5:31 pm
- ** almost forgot!! I covered it with foil the first 15min (to bake in the flavors– then left it uncovered the last 15min
  
  Lauren says: 03/24/2013 at 5:33 pm
- i LOVE your substitutions, lauren! i may have to try it in a casserole dish too! thank you for your feedback. i appreciate it! 🙂
  
  tijuana707 says: 06/14/2013 at 9:12 am
- I did the same thing Lauren. I also roasted some new red garlic potatoes at the same time. Added some grilled Cajun shrimp and dinner was served. The broccoli was the hit of the evening. I’ll be using this recipe on a regular basis. Thanks so much tijuana707

Just got on Pinterest and look forward to making your recipe this weekend. We both love broccoli and I might just put the whole thing into a casserole and freeze the leftover if there is any.

Can you use fresh broccoli?

Amanda says: 04/09/2013 at 12:48 pm
- hi amanda! yes, you can use fresh broccoli. however, i would blanch or steam the broccoli first, then squeeze out of extra moisture before adding it to the the patty mixture. using frozen broccoli just helps avoid those steps. please let me know how you like it. 🙂

Keeping track of so many yummy recipes posted by others is hard. So when I come across one I like I add it to food.com & recipe matcher.

You can find it here: http://www.food.com/recipe/baked-cheese-broccoli-patties-500602

If this site would like me to remove it or set it to private I certainly will. When I first found it it was someone’s post on Facebook with no reference to this site.

I too found your recipe on facebook, but the link took me directly here. This looks wonderful — although I have no idea what panko is, or where to find it. Will have to find some soon!

Just a note — you are amazingly good at responding to each post, so suspect you might want to know that you missed one from Lauren on 03/24. I noticed because I read all the comments, and am hoping to try out a few of the suggested changes at some time, too.

  tijuana707 says: 06/14/2013 at 9:06 am
  - I tried them with cauliflower mixed in, and didn’t really measure the fresh (steamed) veggies. As a result the patties fell apart before I even had them on the pan, so switched to a casserole dish pretty quickly. I enjoyed the mix, and left most of the leftovers at my mom’s — hoping she will eat more (she is not a fan of cooked veggies). I will make them again, because I do like veggies,and these were good, but will perhaps measure more accurately next time. I really like the patty idea. thanks!
    
    Diana says: 06/23/2013 at 7:41 pm
    - i am the same way, diana. it was very hard for me at first to actually measure out ingredients for this website. my mom never really
      measured anything and eyeballed everything. i am glad that you liked the taste of the mixture. please let me know when you try it again! 🙂

This recipe sounds delicious and gotta give it a try. Meanwhile, I am a potato lover; I will try to make potato patties with cut-up baked potato or mashed potato and bake them in the oven instead of frying. I will let you know how it turn out.

  tijuana707 says: 07/20/2013 at 5:11 pm
I made these with and without the onions & garlic. Just eyed them as far as cook time, ~4 mins less than recipe calls for. (If you have stoneware, use it!!! My patties stuck to the foil and were a pain to separate. I completed cooking them on a stoneware pan. Can’t say enough about stoneware, so worth the price.)
Both were good, but I enjoyed them with the o&g more.
The baby liked the ones without.
Great recipe, although I didn’t make the whole bag of broccoli & added maybe 1/4 cup of extra parm chz because that was the end of the bottle, I left about 1/4 the bag out for later use, turned out great!! This will certainly be a staple in my family’s meals from now on. Baked and better for us than fries, thx!

I have made these twice, the first time following the recipe and the second time just winging it. I subbed feta and blended some wheat thins because I didn’t have breadcrumbs, and I pan-fried them. Both times they were perfect for my toddler. Thanks!!

Hi Just saw your recipe. Looks good. Will try it. Can you use bread crumbs instead of panko? Also , I know this is a stupid question but here goes. The parmesan cheese is the cheese or the jar you put on top of like spaghetti? I always am confused on that in recipe’s.
Thanks

Connie Kicklighter says: 02/27/2014 at 1:53 pm
- hi connie! yes, you can use breadcrumbs instead of panko. also, you can use the jarred parmesan cheese or the shredded one in the package. usually, the one in the package is much fresher. please let me know how you like it. 🙂

yum ! made with fresh broccoli chopped up, and worked out fine (didn’t pre-cook).
Just wasn’t sure what to eat them with. Would you consider them as a side dish?

lori-anne says: 04/07/2014 at 8:34 pm
- thank you, lori anne! i am so glad you enjoyed it. i do consider them a side dish, although some of my vegetarian users make them as their entree and serve it with a side salad. please let me know how you serve them. 🙂

Pingback: 10 Top Rated Broccoli Side Dishes
Wow! Did my husband just eat all his broccoli? Broccoli is my fave food and I usually just steam or purée it. Kind of boring but I love it. Casey does not love broccoli all by itself. So I grabbed the giant costco bag of fresh broccoli he brought me home last week, found this recipe, and waited 30 minutes for the result. I turned up oven 30* hotter than you, and it brown and crisped really nicely on both sides. Very yummy. Casey ate a whole plate! Thanks!! Xoxo

This was an amazing recipe! I am not a broccoli fan but this was one of the most tasty snacks. I added extra panko crumbs when I made it – a little extra panko never hurts.

Asmita says: 07/08/2014 at 1:28 pm
- hi asmita! yeah, more panko never hurt anybody! lol. i am so glad you liked it. thanks for letting me know. 🙂

I think they sound good, I would add one cup of quinoa made wth chicken stock, and one cup of chopped fresh spinach just to boost nutritional value.

Marcia Little says: 08/01/2014 at 7:27 pm
- hi marica! that is a great idea and sounds delicious. 🙂
  
  tijuana707 says: 08/02/2014 at 4:06 pm
These look great! Could you please give us an alternative to panko breadcrumbs, they’re not available in the rest of the world…. look at the back of the box and tell us what it says, then we could probably figure out something similar. Thanks!

Fabrizia says: 08/21/2014 at 7:56 am
- hi fabrizia! you can use plain breadcrumbs or even pulse bread into crumbs with a food processor. please let me know what how you like it! 🙂

Thanks so much! As a vegetarian that feeds non-vegetarians, I love trying new ways to get them to eat with me! Even the ones that hate eating “trees” loved this!

I did change it up a bit, by using pepperjack instead of sharp. (because that’s what I had on hand, lol)

Dee says: 09/13/2014 at 9:51 pm
- hi dee! i am so glad that you liked it, dee. i LOVE pepperjack! it was an excellent substitution. i may have to use it too! 🙂

We typically have steam veggies most nights. I’ve done that for years and thought I should try mixing things up a bit so gave this a go. I converted fahrenheit to celsius but forgot to account for our fan forced oven and hence they were a little over done & little dry. Opps. Still tasty. My husband thought a sauce might be a nice addition. Not sure what kinda flavour would best suit this dish. Any thoughts on a sauce? Thanks, recipe was great.

Jeanie says: 02/11/2015 at 1:02 am
- hi jeanie! i am so glad that you liked the recipe, dry and all. lol. several of my readers said that they used a cheese sauce with it for dipping, while others said they used marinara. maybe you can try one of those? i’d love to hear how you liked it! 🙂

Oh my gosh. I just had a party in my mouth. I made them for dinner and they were a huge hit. I am doing Atkins and subbed the panko breadcrumbs for crushed pork rinds and they turned out great. These are unbelievable. They will definitely become a regular menu item in our house.

Thanks a million,

Jean

I think that these Brocolli Patties would be delicious served with your Dill Ranch Cream Sauce from your “Baked Sweet and Spicy Chicken Wings” recipe.

Sandy O says: 06/07/2015 at 7:00 am
- i agree, sandy! that sauce would work well with these patties. great idea! 🙂
  
  tijuana says: 06/08/2015 at 9:57 am
this is a great recipe….I have made squash patties for years, much the same….I used fresh chopped broccoli rather than frozen, and used a little four and corn meal rather than panko bread crumbs….Were great….!!

  tijuana says: 06/23/2015 at 10:04 am
Thanks for these 🙂 These are awesome – I’ve made them twice already, once with just plain broccoli and then using the california mix (broccoli, carrots & Cauliflower) both came out perfect

Lovely recipe, I made them with fried leeks and garlic and a mixture of fresh cauliflower, broccoli and chopped up ham. Its a great way to use up leftover bits and bobs in the fridge, many thanks for the recipe 🙂
