Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cauliflower rice
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave the cauliflower rice on high for 3-4 minutes or until tender. Let it cool slightly, then transfer to a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the cauliflower.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked cauliflower rice, shredded mozzarella cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, egg, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
Divide the cauliflower mixture into 8 equal portions and form each into a compact patty about 1/2 inch thick.
In a large non-stick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add half of the patties to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Transfer the cooked patties to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat the cooking process with the remaining butter and patties.
Bake the patties in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the edges are crisp.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy your Keto Cheesy Rice Cakes as a satisfying snack or side dish.
