When winter approaches, we Indians love to enjoy our warm cup of tea with some crispy hot snacks. For us, the best snacks are those that keep us warm and also satisfy our cravings. Even our body demands something to binge on to keep warm. I also go through the same winter food cravings.
Since winter is right upon us, I was looking for ways to binge on something healthy and ketogenic yet wholesome. I tried low-carb broccoli and cheese fitters and was pleasantly surprised at how tasty this evening snack turned out to be.
This broccoli and fritters recipe is not like any other regular deep-fried broccoli snack. It does not include any corn meal but still has a perfect crunch to them. Trust me, you’ll love binge-eating them this winter with my yummy Keto BBQ Sauce Recipe or any other sauce of your choice.
However, I love to enjoy these fitters with amazing Keto BBQ sauce. This combination is a perfect snack for your whole family to enjoy together. Now, let’s get into its quick preparation.

Ingredients
7 tablespoons Flaxseed meal
120 grams of fresh Broccoli
100 grams Almond Flour
115 ounces of Mozzarella Cheese
2 teaspoons Baking Powder
2 large Eggs
Salt and Pepper (as per your taste)
Instructions:
1. Put broccoli in a food processor to break it into small pieces. You need it to be properly processed before beginning.

3. Add two large eggs and mix them well to ensure everything is blended nicely.
