Ingredients

  • 1 small head cauliflower, cut into small florets
  • 2 large eggs, whisked
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced (green and white parts)
  • 1/3 cup GF garbanzo flour

  • 1 tsp. GF baking powder
  • ¾ tsp. sea salt
  • ½ tsp. thyme
  • Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp. coconut or grapeseed oil
  • Note: for paleo option, you can substitute almond flour for garbanzo flour

    • Instructions

  • Steam cauliflower florets for 3 minutes. Transfer to a food processor and chop to the size of rice. The cauliflower should make 3 cups or rice. This can be done a day in advance. If you have any cauliflower rice left over, add it to soups, stews or salads
  • Combine cauliflower rice with egg and green onions
  • In a separate bowl stir together garbanzo flour, Parmesan cheese, baking powder, sea salt, thyme and black pepper
  • Add cauliflower mixture to dry ingredients and mix until combined
  • Heat oil over medium heat in a large non-stick frying pan and drop spoonfuls of cauliflower mixture onto frying pan. Leave some room between each fritter. Slightly press down each fritter with a spatula. Cook until golden brown about 3 minutes on each side. Drain briefly on a paper towel. Keep warm in the oven until ready to serve
