After you boil your broccoli to soften it, you’re going to add your broccoli to a food processor until smooth.

Then add the rest of the ingredients into a bowl with the broccoli, mixing until it’s all combined. Pour the mixture onto a pan lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup, shaping it into a 8×11 rectangle shape.

With your oven at 400 degrees, bake for 15 minutes. And then you’ll want to flip over the sticks and bake for a additoinal 20 minutes.

Remove from oven and allow to cool because they’re pretty hot right now. Cut into 16 sticks and serve.

We love serving these broccoli cheese bites as a appetizer or a snack!  Since they’re sticks, they’re easy to pack up for a snack on the run too!    I’ve served these at a few family parties and they’re always a hit!

You can serve them as is, or we especially like them dipped in tomato sauce (like my cherry tomato sauce!)

      If you have any leftovers store in the refrigerator, and then heat up in the microwave.

    Just made these – not cut into fingers yet but ate a couple as they came out of the oven (I added a slice of brie to the top of one which was DElicicious!). Will definitely make again ~ thanks for sharing the recipe 🙂

    Mr. Picky thought these weren’t too bad. I, on the other hand, found them utterly fantastic! A broccoli bread stick….genius! Had to sub a 1/2 cup wheat bread crumbs, 1/2 cup Panko crumbs and a couple of good shakes of Italian seasoning….living rural has its ups and downs! Thanks for sharing a yummy recipe….happy day!
