Ingredients

• 2 cups Cauliflower florets, chopped
• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 tablespoon Heavy cream
• 1 large Egg
• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Butter, melted

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and generously grease a mini muffin tin with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

Steam the cauliflower florets until tender, about 8-10 minutes. Allow them to cool slightly, then finely chop or pulse in a food processor until they resemble rice-like grains.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped cauliflower, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, and heavy cream. Mix well until the cheeses are melted and blend into the cauliflower.

Step 4

Crack the egg into the mixture, then add the almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until everything is evenly mixed and well incorporated.

Step 5

Spoon the mixture into the greased mini muffin tin, filling each cup to the top and pressing gently to pack the mixture in.

Step 6

Brush the tops of each mac and cheese bite with melted butter for a golden crust.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and crisp.

Step 8

Remove the bites from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Step 9

Serve warm as an appetizer or snack. Enjoy your Keto Mac and Cheese Bites!
