- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
- Pulse the broccoli in a food processor until finely chopped in two batches. Place in a large bowl. Add the cheese, flour, eggs, garlic, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Stir to combine.
- Scoop the broccoli mixture into 1/2 cup portions and place on a baking sheet, patting into a 3.5 inch wide patty. (You'll have 8 total.)
