Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Steam the 4 cups broccoli florets until just tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well and let cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large bowl, mash the broccoli with a fork. Add 1 cup breadcrumbs, 2 beaten eggs, 1/2 cup parmesan, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper. Mix until combined.
Step 4
Shape the mixture into 12-16 small patties or bites. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5
Brush the tops with the 2 tbsp olive oil. Bake until golden and crispy, about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway.
Step 6
Serve warm with your favorite dip, such as ranch or marinara.
Step 7
Enjoy!
