Total Time: 30 minutes
Course: Appetizer
Cuisine: Irish
Servings: 5 servings
Calories: 90kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 medium head of cauliflower grated or riced
  • 1 cup shredded Irish cheddar cheese
  • 1 large egg lightly beaten
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped (optional)
  • Cooking spray or oil for greasing the baking sheet

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with cooking spray or oil.
  • Prepare the cauliflower: Grate the cauliflower using a box grater or process it in a food processor until it resembles rice. Transfer the riced cauliflower to a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
  • Make the mixture: In a large bowl, combine the grated cauliflower, shredded Irish cheddar, beaten egg, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  • Shape the bites: Using your hands or a spoon, form the cauliflower mixture into small bite-sized patties or balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are evenly spaced.
  • Bake: Bake the cauliflower bites in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
  • Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Serve with a dipping sauce like keto- friendly ranch or marinara.
