1.5 cups chopped broccoli florets (steamed or thawed if frozen)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon butter (for greasing pan)

3. Fold in broccoli florets and shredded cheddar cheese.

Notes
Use sharp cheddar for a more robust cheesy flavor.
Make sure broccoli is well-drained to avoid extra moisture in the batter.
