Ingredients
- 1 head of cauliflower
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cup almond flour
- 0.25 cup chopped green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Cut the cauliflower into florets and place them in a food processor. Pulse until it resembles rice, being careful not to over-process.
Step 2
Transfer the riced cauliflower to a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Wrap it up tightly and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial for getting crispy hash browns.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the drained cauliflower rice, beaten egg, almond flour, chopped green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Step 4
Shape the cauliflower mixture into small patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter.
Step 5
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Step 6
Once the oil is hot, add the cauliflower patties to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 7
Remove the hash browns from the skillet and drain on a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess oil.
Step 8
Serve the cauliflower hash browns warm. Enjoy as a side dish or as a tasty addition to your breakfast plate.
