These savory pancakes are easy to prepare and perfect for any meal of the day. Loaded with nutrients, they offer a delicious way to incorporate more vegetables into your diet.

Ingredients:

2 cups broccoli
90g
1 onion
70g
3 eggs
170g
1/4 cup coconut flour
9g
1 dash salt
0.40g
1 tsp garlic powder
3.10g
1 tbsp coconut oil
14g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Begin by washing the broccoli thoroughly. Cut it into small florets.
- Peel the onion and chop it finely.
2. Steam the Broccoli:
- In a medium-sized pot, bring water to a boil. Add a steamer basket and place the broccoli florets in it.
- Cover and steam the broccoli for about 5-7 minutes, or until tender but not mushy.
- Remove the broccoli from the steamer and let it cool slightly.
3. Blend the Vegetables:
- Once the broccoli has cooled, transfer it to a food processor along with the chopped onion. Pulse until the mixture is finely chopped and well-combined but not puréed.
4. Prepare the Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until they are well-beaten.
- Add the chopped broccoli and onion mixture to the eggs.
- Gradually mix in the coconut flour, ensuring it is well-incorporated into the vegetable and egg mixture.
- Add the dash of salt and the garlic powder. Stir to combine.
5. Cook the Pancakes:
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, add about 1 tablespoon of coconut oil and allow it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
- Scoop approximately 1/4 cup of the batter for each pancake onto the skillet, flattening them gently with a spatula to form round pancakes.
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
6. Serve:
- Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
- Serve the garlic-broccoli pancakes warm. They pair well with a side of yogurt or a simple salad.

Tips:

- Ensure the broccoli is well-cooked before adding it to the mixture to achieve a smoother texture in your pancakes.

- If you prefer a chunkier texture, simply chop the broccoli and onion into larger pieces before mixing.

- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of your favorite spices or herbs, such as parsley or paprika.

- Use a non-stick pan or a well-greased skillet to prevent the pancakes from sticking.

- Cook the pancakes on medium heat to ensure they are cooked through without burning the outside.

- Feel free to experiment by adding other vegetables like grated carrots or zucchini to the batter.

These garlic-broccoli pancakes with coconut flour are a nutritious and tasty option for those looking for a gluten-free and vegetable-rich meal. Enjoy them on their own or pair them with your favorite dipping sauce. With just a few simple ingredients and steps, you can easily whip up this wholesome dish any time of the day.
