Ingredients
- 5 cups chopped cauliflower florets (about 1 lb.)
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Avocado oil, for frying
Instructions
1. Prepare the Cauliflower
Place the cauliflower florets into a food processor and process until finely minced.
2. Combine Ingredients
Transfer the minced cauliflower into a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs, flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly to form a paste-like mixture.
Note: If the mixture feels too soft or moist, add a bit more flour to achieve the right consistency.
3. Form Patties
Using an ice-cream scoop or spoon, measure small portions of the mixture. Shape them into ⅓-inch-thick patties. Adjust the size to your preference.
4. Fry the Fritters
Heat a small amount of avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the patties for about 2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
5. Serve and Enjoy
Serve the fritters warm with sour cream or your favorite dipping sauce.
Tips
- Customize Flavors: Add grated cheese, herbs, or spices to the mixture for extra flavor.
- Make it Gluten-Free: Use almond flour or gluten-free all-purpose flour instead of regular flour.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or air fryer for best results.
