Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Break the cauliflower into florets and use a food processor to pulse until it resembles rice.
Transfer the cauliflower rice to a clean, thin kitchen towel, wrap it up, and squeeze out all the excess moisture.
In a large bowl, mix the cauliflower rice, one egg, almond flour, shredded cheddar, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
Form the mixture into four even-sized flatbread rounds on the baking sheet.
Bake the cauliflower flatbreads in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown and firm.
While the flatbreads are baking, cook the bacon in a frying pan over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
In the same pan, melt the butter, and whisk the remaining two eggs in a bowl. Pour the eggs into the pan and cook over low heat, stirring gently until scrambled.
Remove the flatbreads from the oven. Layer two flatbreads with scrambled eggs, two slices of bacon each, and top with another flatbread to create sandwiches.
Serve the breakfast sandwiches warm and enjoy your low-carb creation!
