Steps
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200 °C) (200°C (400 °F)) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 3-5 minutes until they are tender but not mushy.
Drain the broccoli thoroughly and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Place the broccoli florets on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece.
Use the bottom of a flat glass or a measuring cup to gently press down on each floret until it is flattened (smashed).
Drizzle the olive oil over the smashed broccoli.
Season evenly with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese generously over each piece.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are crispy and the cheese is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes to allow them to crisp up further before serving.
Notes
For extra spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes before roasting. Ensure the broccoli is very dry before smashing to get the crispiest results.
