Cheesy Cauliflower Biscuits Recipe that is low carb and gluten free. These are not real biscuits but they taste pretty good.
I am on a cauliflower kick this week. Thai cauliflower rice, cheesy cauliflower rice and cauliflower biscuits.
I just want to clarify something. I’m fully aware that these are not real biscuits. And so isn’t cauliflower pizza crust recipe really a pizza and cauliflower breadsticks aren’t actual breadsticks.
They don’t have a light airy fluffy texture but rather more of vegetable muffins or big cauliflower tots. They did resemble biscuits in a sense though and we all loved them. It was a nice change in our so beaten up menu.
I wouldn’t make them often or wouldn’t call them super healthy because they contain a fair amount of cheese and eggs.
How to Make Cauliflower Biscuits
I bought this cauliflower at the farmer’s market. It had a purple undertone to it, which was invisible after processing. Separate into florets.
In a food processor, add cauliflower in batches and process until fine crumbs. Smaller than in my photos, it will produce softer and fluffier cauliflower biscuits. In the last batch, add garlic.
Saute cauliflower rice for 5 – 7 minutes or until a bit golden.
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix.
Divide mixture evenly among openings of a muffin tin and top with remaining 3 tbsp cheese. Bake for 25 minutes. Let cool. That’s it for this healthy side dish!
