Equipment

1 Large Baking Sheet

Ingredients

1 medium head cauliflower trimmed and cut into small florets
3/4 cup almond flour or almond meal
2/3 cup water
Optional: 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt or to taste

US Customary - Metric

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)
