Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Keto Cauliflower Hashbrowns.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C), setting the stage for deliciousness.
Step 2
While the oven warms up, grab a microwave-safe bowl and toss in the grated cauliflower.
Step 3
Pop it in the microwave on high for about 2 minutes, then let it cool for 5 minutesâthis is the perfect time to gather your other ingredients.
Step 4
Once itâs cool enough to handle, take a clean dish towel and wring out the cauliflower to squeeze out as much moisture as you can.
Step 5
This step is crucial for achieving that perfect crispy texture! Now, transfer the dried cauliflower into a large mixing bowl.
Step 6
Next, itâs time to add some flavor! Mix in the shredded Cheddar cheese, a beaten egg, crispy bacon bits, diced chives, and a sprinkle of salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if youâre feeling adventurous.
Step 7
Stir everything together until itâs well combined and looks like a tasty, cheesy mixture.
Step 8
Now, grab a large baking sheet and give it a light spray with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 9
Divide your cauliflower mixture into six equal portions, making sure to leave some space between each one.
Step 10
With your hands, gently flatten each portion into an oval shape, creating little hash brown patties.
Step 11
Place them on the baking sheet and slide it into your preheated oven.
Step 12
Bake for about 15 minutes, or until they turn a lovely golden brown.
Step 13
For an extra crispy finish, switch on the broiler to low and broil the hash browns for an additional 5 minutesâkeep an eye on them so they donât burn! Once theyâre perfectly crispy, take them out and let them cool for about 5 minutes.
Step 14
This little resting time helps them firm up, making them easier to serve.
Step 15
Now, youâre ready to enjoy your delicious homemade cauliflower hash brownsâperfect as a side dish or a tasty snack!.
