Scale
Ingredients
- 1 medium head cauliflower, trimmed and cut into small florets
- 3/4 cup (84 g) almond flour or almond meal
- 2/3 cup (150 mL) water
- Optional: 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt (or to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450F (225C). Lightly spritz a large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk the almond flour, water and (optional) salt until blended.
- Add 1/2 of the cauliflower to bowl, tossing to coat (use hands to rub the almond batter into the cauliflower pieces). Place coated pieces on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining cauliflower (note: if any batter solids remain in bowl; rub over the top of the cauliflower).
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown (check early to avoid burning).
- Serve immediately.
Notes
Variations: Add spices, herbs (dried or chopped fresh), black pepper, hot sauce, nutritional yeast (1 to 3 tablespoons, for cheesey flavor), or any other flavor you like to the batter before coating the cauliflower.
Note: I calculated the nutrition without the addition of salt (given that it is optional/variable)
