Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 600 grams Cauliflower florets
- 120 grams Almond flour
- 100 grams Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 30 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cook the cauliflower florets in a pot of boiling water for about 10 minutes or until tender. Drain well and let cool slightly.
Transfer the cooked cauliflower to a food processor and pulse until it reaches a rice-like texture.
In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, almond flour, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
With your hands, form the mixture into small balls, approximately the size of a golf ball, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush each ball lightly with olive oil to help them crisp up while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the balls are golden brown and crispy.
Once done, remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Optionally, garnish with chopped parsley before serving for added flavor and color.
