Additional Comments:

I made mine with zuchini and brocoli and I added some cheddar cheese, I tried some and I thought they were very good and easy to make! A little saltier than I would like so I would cut it back just a small amount, overall great recipe and very adaptable

I haven’t tried them in the oven, but I think it would work if you sprayed them with oil or melted butter! As for the flour, it helps hold everything together. So what is your purpose for replacing it? If you’re avoiding gluten you could try a gluten-free flour blend!

I am a huge fan of these veggie patties. I made them this morning for my 13 month old. I used raw broccoli, onions, kale, and carrots and just chopped them in the food processor. They came out great… a tasty moist patty with herby garlicy flavor. Charlotte loved them! She ate the two I gave her and then reached to pull one off of Daddy’s plate. I used the rest of my veggies to make another large batch to have on hand and put some in the freezer. How great is it that my baby is eating kale!?


Just made these! Mine certainly were not as round and pretty as yours, but that didn’t matter because they were delicious! I substituted almond flour for regular flour. And added Parmesan cheese to the mixture! They were gluten free and absolutely amazing!
