Once you flash the Raspbian image onto the SD card then:

  1. Open a file at the root of the mounted drive called config.txt
  2. Add the following line at the very bottom: dtoverlay=dwc2
  3. Open a file at the root of the mounted drive called cmdline.txt
  4. Add the following line after the rootwait parameter: modules-load=dwc2,g_ether
  5. Create a file called ssh in to the root of the mounted driver, the file can contain any text you like, or even nothing at all: touch /Volumes/boot/ssh

Note: SSH will be disabled by default on the images from version 1.1 (2016-11-25-raspbian-jessie, Raspberry Pi reference 2016-11-25). When the Pi boots, it looks for the ssh file; if it finds it, it enables SSH and then deletes the file.
