Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly grease a mini muffin pan.

2. Prepare Broccoli: Chop broccoli finely or use riced broccoli. Steam or microwave just until tender—avoid overcooking.

3. Drain Excess Moisture: Let broccoli cool slightly, then squeeze out as much water as possible for a firmer texture.

4. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine broccoli, cheese, egg, olive oil, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, lemon pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix until a thick, cohesive batter forms.

5. Fill Muffin Pan: Scoop the mixture into the mini muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.

6. Bake: Bake for 18–20 minutes, until edges are golden and bites are set.

7. Cool & Serve: Let the bites cool for a few minutes in the pan before removing. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
