Steps
To make broccoli pancakes, wash and clean the broccoli, then cook them in plenty of salted boiling water and once ready, drain them.
Pour the broccoli into the blender bowl and start blending.
Then add the parmesan and eggs, and continue blending.
Finally, add the flour, baking soda, and salt. Blend until smooth and homogeneous.
Lightly grease a small pan and heat it on low flame.
Pour a couple of tablespoons of batter into the pan, cook for a couple of minutes, then flip with the help of a spatula.
Cook the other side for another minute, waiting for it to color. Repeat the same operation until the batter is finished.
Place the pancakes on a plate, one on top of the other, and garnish as you like, for example with a yogurt sauce.
Serve and enjoy, bon appétit!
