Crispy Coconut Cauliflower Bites

  • 2

Ingredients

  • 2 c. cauliflower florets
  • 2 Tbsp. flaxseed meal
  • 2 Tbsp. gluten-free flour of choice
  • 5 Tbsp. water
  • 1 c. unsweetened, shredded coconut
  • 1/2 c. gluten-free breadcrumbs (or crushed gluten-free cereal)
  • 1 tsp. granulate sugar
  • 1 tsp. onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Heat 1/4 c. olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the flax "egg" has thickened, in a shallow dish, mix together the coconut, breadcrumbs, and herbs.
Dip the cauliflower florets into the "egg" mix first and then dip into the coconut mix, coating completely.
Do a test run to make sure that the oil is hot enough: Place one coated cauliflower bite into the skillet and if it makes that sizzle noise, you are good to go. Brown on each side (takes about 2-3 minutes per side).
Drain on a plate lined with a paper towel and season with salt immediately.
Serve with sauce of choice.
