Cauliflower Pancakes

Ingredients:

• 2 cups cauliflower, grated or riced
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (or almond flour for gluten-free)
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 cup chopped green onions (optional)
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Olive oil or butter, for frying

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Cauliflower:
   • If using fresh cauliflower, grate it finely or pulse in a food processor until riced.
   • Steam or microwave the cauliflower for 3-4 minutes to soften. Allow it to cool slightly, then squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.
2. Mix the Batter:
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked cauliflower, eggs, flour, Parmesan cheese, green onions (if using), garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well incorporated.
3. Form the Pancakes:
   • Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and shape into small pancake-sized patties.
4. Cook the Pancakes:
   • Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a little olive oil or butter.
   • Place the cauliflower patties on the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
5. Serve:
   • Serve warm with sour cream, Greek yogurt, or your favorite dipping sauce. These also pair well with a fresh salad or as a side dish.
