Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish or casserole dish.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the broccoli florets for 2-3 minutes until just tender. Drain and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until light and slightly frothy. Stir in the milk, melted butter, and grated Parmesan cheese.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and blanched broccoli florets until evenly distributed.
Pour the mixture into the prepared dish and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Broccoli Cheese Puff!
