INGREDIENTS:
Makes 9 Cups
500 Grams of Frozen Riced Cauliflower - defrosted
1 Large Egg - whisked
1/2 CUP of Cheddar Cheese
1/2 Cup of Parmesan
1 TSP of Salt
1/2 TSP of Garlic Powder
Pepper to Taste
9 Eggs
Additional Toppings - Optional
Chili Pepper Flakes
Green Onion
Chives
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350 and butter your muffin tray really well! If you don’t it will be hard to remove the cauliflower cups later.
In a large bowl, microwave your cauliflower for 8 minutes. Remove and let rest of 5 minutes before putting it a cheesecloth or tea towel to squeeze out as much liquid as possible. There is a lot of excess water in cauliflower so you will need to squeeze it really hard!
Next, in a large bowl, add in your whisked egg, cauliflower, cheddar cheese, parmesan, salt, and garlic powder and mix well using your hands.
Take your cauliflower mixture and press it into your muffin tray to form your ‘cups’.
When ready, place muffin tray in the oven and bake for 15-20 until the cups are golden and edges are brown.
Remove from oven, add in one egg to each cup, sprinkle salt and pepper to taste on top before placing back into the oven for another 10-15 minutes or until whites are set.
When done, remove from oven and allow egg bites to sit for 5 minutes before taking a knife and sliding it around the edge of each muffin mold to help remove the egg bites from the tray.
Add your desired garnishes and serve.
Enjoy!
