Preparation

  1. Cook the grated cauliflower for about 3-5 minutes, until it's tender. Then, transfer the cooked cauliflower to a food processor and puree it until no clumps remain.
  2. Transfer the pureed cauliflower to a large bowl, add all other ingredients, and mix until well combined.
  3. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Scoop out the cauliflower mixture and form it into round patties. Place the patties onto a greased baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
  4. Bake for 25 minutes. Flip the patties and bake for another 15 minutes.
  5. Serve and enjoy!

Additional Tips:

  • To make this cauliflower mash fiber-rich and lower in sugar, consider the following modifications:
  • Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables: Blend some steamed broccoli, carrots, or green beans into the cauliflower mash for added nutrients and fiber[4].
  • Increase Fiber from Cauliflower: Use a larger head of cauliflower for more fiber[5].
  • Add Nuts or Seeds: Mix in chia seeds, almonds, or walnuts for added fiber and crunch.
  • Use High-Fiber Dairy Alternatives: Use Greek yogurt with chia seeds or cottage cheese with raisins for more fiber and protein.
  • Spices and Herbs: Add fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, cumin, or coriander for flavor without increasing sugar content.
  • Low-Sugar Sweeteners (Optional): Use honey or maple syrup in moderation for a touch of sweetness.
