Preheat oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Cut the cauliflower into small florets and steam them until tender, about 5 minutes.
Drain the cauliflower well and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a food processor, pulse the cauliflower until it resembles rice grains.
Transfer the cauliflower rice to a mixing bowl.
Add the eggs, gluten-free breadcrumbs, cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley.
Mix everything together until well combined.
With your hands, shape the mixture into small tater-tot sized cylinders and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly spray the tops of the tots with olive oil spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through the cooking time.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your gluten-free cauliflower tots!
