Cheesy Cauliflower Tots

Whip up these delightful Cheesy Cauliflower Tots for a quick and satisfying snack or appetizer. They’re a fun twist on a classic, perfect for sharing or enjoying solo.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cauliflower florets, riced
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the riced cauliflower, cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, beaten egg, almond flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly incorporated.
  3. Shape the mixture into small tot shapes, about 1-inch long.
  4. Place the tots on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly crispy.
  6. While the tots are baking, heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  7. Once the tots are out of the oven, you can optionally pan-fry them in the hot oil for a few minutes on each side until extra crispy.
  8. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious cheesy cauliflower tots!

Notes

  • For best results, make sure your cauliflower is finely riced, similar to couscous.
  • You can add other seasonings like onion powder or a pinch of paprika for extra flavor.
  • These tots are best served immediately, but leftovers can be reheated in the oven or air fryer.
