Start by preparing your cauliflower. Remove the leaves and core, then cut it into florets. Use a food processor to pulse the cauliflower florets until they reach a rice-like texture. Alternatively, you can grate the cauliflower using a box grater.
Transfer the riced cauliflower into a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Over a bowl or the sink, squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible to prevent the waffles from being soggy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the riced cauliflower, almond flour, eggs, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until everything is evenly incorporated.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly coat it with cooking spray to ensure the waffles don't stick.
Once the iron is hot, scoop approximately 1/3 cup of the mixture onto the center of the waffle grid. Spread it slightly with a spatula to even out the thickness if needed.
Close the waffle iron and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy on the edges. Cooking times may vary depending on your specific waffle iron.
Carefully remove the waffle using a fork or spatula and place it onto a wire rack to keep it crispy while you cook the remaining batter.
Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter. Ensure to spray the waffle iron with cooking spray between batches.
Serve the low carb savory potato waffles warm, topping them with additional chopped green onions or a dollop of sour cream if desired, and enjoy!
