Easy Cauliflower Tater Tots
Ingredients
- ½ head large cauliflower, cut into florets
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet with the coconut oil.
- Steam the cauliflower florets in a large saucepan with an inch or so of water for 5 minutes until tender, but not mushy.
- Place steamed cauliflower in a food processor and pulse a few times until the cauliflower is about the size of rice OR finely chop the florets until the size of rice.
- In a medium bowl combine all ingredients and mix well.
- Scoop out mixture 1 tablespoon at a time and shape into oval shapes. Place tots on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-22 minutes, flipping halfway through.
*Oops! We mixed the garlic with the coconut flour in this video. So unless you like your tater tots extra garlicky, make sure to put ¼ cup coconut flour instead + just add ½ teaspoon garlic powder!
