Ingredients

  • 8 ounces broccoli roughly chopped (about 2 and 1/2 cups roughly chopped)
  • 2 green onions trimmed, roughly chopped
  • 3/4 cup 90 g chickpea flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil I used olive oil

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400F.Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a food processor, finely chop the broccoli and green onions.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the chickpea flour, baking powder, salt and pepper, breaking up any lumps in the flour. Add the water and oil, whisking until blended and smooth; stir in the broccoli mixture until blended.
  • Drop the batter heaping tablespoons (I used a small cookie scoop) onto prepared baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart. With moistened fingertips, shape each round into an oval.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Storage: The cooled tots can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 day, the refrigerator for 5 days, or the freezer for up to 6 months.
Tip: An equal amount of cauliflower, carrots or parsnips can be used in place of the broccoli.
