Method

Gather and prepare your ingredients. Preheat your oven to 200°C/180°C fan. Line a muffin tin with paper liners, or grease with a small amount of olive oil.

Place the broccoli into a saucepan and add about 2cm of water. Bring to a simmer, and cook for 8-10 minutes, until tender and the water has evaporated.

Mash the broccoli using either the back of a fork or potato masher. Go for the texture you feel is most appropriate for your baby - a rougher mash for older babies, or super smooth for babies just starting to eat solid foods. Allow to cool slightly.

Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk to combine. Add the cooked broccoli and nutritional yeast and stir to combine.

Pour into your prepared muffin tin and cook for 18-20 minutes, until set and lightly golden. Allow to cool before serving.
