Keto Cauliflower Hush Puppies
How to Make It
Step 1
Place the cauliflower rice in a bowl. Add one teaspoon of salt and mix well. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
Step 2
Once the cauliflower is tender, you’ll need to squeeze out the moisture. Transfer the cauliflower rice to a large dish towel. Press to remove any excess water.
Step 3
Finely chop the chili pepper. Transfer the cauliflower back to a bowl. Add the eggs, cream cheese, garlic powder, dried chives, and chili pepper. Mix well to combine.
Step 4
Set the cauliflower mixture aside. In a separate bowl, add the coconut flour and baking powder. Mix to combine.
Step 5
Add the coconut flour mixture to the cauliflower mixture and mix well to combine. Add salt to taste. Let the mixture sit for another 10 minutes.
Step 6
Heat oil in a large pan. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls into the oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 7
Line a large dish or a plate with paper towels. Transfer the fried hush puppies onto the plate and let them drain. Repeat with the next batch.
