June 8, 2018 at 2:46 AMIs there a vegetarian substitute for egg?
Kate @Food For Your Good
June 9, 2018 at 9:57 AMGood question Charlotte. There are some commercial egg replacement products and recipes that you can use to replace the eggs with, but we have not tested with any egg substitutes yet. If we do make it at some point we’ll post it. Also, we would like to hear from you if decide to give it a try and test it on you own. Thanks! 🙂

June 2, 2018 at 12:04 AMWhat would the “shelf life” be of these?? Also, if I squeezed moisture out would it work with frozen broccoli??? Cheese cloth!
Kate @Food For Your Good
June 5, 2018 at 10:00 PMMarlene,
These crisps are best eaten immediately after cooling. 🙂
Please use fresh broccoli because frozen will retain moisture and/or won’t hold together as well. Thank you for your questions!

November 27, 2016 at 6:26 PMIt would be helpful to put oil on the aluminum foil. Mine were stuck to the foil when I tried to flip them, so I lost the bottom of every one of them. They taste good.

November 9, 2016 at 12:50 PMthe thinner they are, the crispier they’ll get. it’s a keeper.
Kate @Food For Your Good
May 19, 2018 at 10:27 PMYes, they will! Thank you, Monica! 😉

October 31, 2016 at 5:13 PMDo you think coconut flour would work?
Kate @Food For Your Good
November 2, 2016 at 10:02 AMIt’s a great question, Sheridan. I will not recommend coconut flour for this recipe. Coconut flour doesn’t stick together well and mostly is used for baking bread and desserts.

October 27, 2016 at 11:12 PMHow much does this make? I might also try this with red pepper (after squeezing the water out really good!)
Kate @Food For Your Good
October 29, 2016 at 9:35 AMJen, about 20 (+/-). Red Pepper? Sounds so cool! Please, let us know how it will go… 🙂
Amy Harris
February 8, 2017 at 6:14 PM4 cups of broccoli, 1 cup of carrots…that’s 5 cups or 80 Tablespoons. Shouldn’t that make 80 crisps?
Jenny
October 27, 2016 at 5:52 PMDo you think 3 egg whites would work in place of the whole eggs?
Kate @Food For Your Good
October 29, 2016 at 9:33 AMJenny, I would recommend using the whole eggs. With the egg whites, the flavor may change and it will not hold crisps together as well.

Kate @Food For Your Good
October 29, 2016 at 9:36 AMThank you, Cary! I hope you’ll enjoy them.
Berk
September 23, 2016 at 9:22 PMCan I use almond flour instead of brown rice flour??
Kate @Food For Your Good
September 25, 2016 at 10:09 PMBerk, almond flour is mostly used to bake sweet goods with. But if you decide to try it let us know how it turns out 😉
Jamima
September 11, 2016 at 9:00 PMTrying to be extra healthy, can I omit the flour all together?
Kate @Food For Your Good
September 25, 2016 at 10:16 PMJamima, flour mixed in with an egg helps to keep crisps together.
Irene
August 31, 2016 at 8:35 AM2 heads of broccoli ? they are all different sizes…can you be more specific please? 2 cups? 4 cups ?
Thank you.

Dani
August 27, 2016 at 8:49 PMWhat can be used in place of the brown rice flour?
Kate @Food For Your Good
September 7, 2016 at 9:38 PMDani, all-purpose flour will work but the flavor will change a bit.
Shannon
August 27, 2016 at 5:56 PMWould thawed frozen broccoli work?
Kate @Food For Your Good
September 7, 2016 at 9:39 PMShannon, please use fresh. Thawed frozen broccoli will retain moisture and won’t hold together as well.

Doreen
August 10, 2016 at 10:21 PMDo you spread out the broccoli mixture into rounds or leave it in rounded spoonfuls on cookie sheet?
Kate @Food For Your Good
August 24, 2016 at 11:08 PMDoreen, place 1 full tbsp. of the broccoli batter on a sheet pan for each crisp. You don’t need to spread it.
Chris Wallner
August 9, 2016 at 8:13 AMDo you actually mean 2 broccoli florets? Or 2 heads?
Kate @Food For Your Good
August 10, 2016 at 8:14 AM2 heads Broccoli 🙂
