Crispy Parmesan Cauliflower Tots

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400oF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and brush with olive oil; set aside.

2. 2

   While the oven is pre-heating, steam the cauliflower until tender, and cool to room temperature.

3. 3

   Place the cauliflower on a clean dishtowel or piece of cheesecloth, roll up and wring to extract as much moisture from the cauliflower as you can.

4. 4

   Transfer the cauliflower to a large bowl and break florets apart with your hands. Add the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, egg, parsley, garlic powder and pepper, and, using your hands, mix until mixture holds together.

5. 5

   Using a tablespoon, scoop the cauliflower mixture onto prepared baking sheet. Use your hands to roll each scoop into an oval-shaped tot. Brush the tots with olive oil.

6. 6

   Bake for 15 minutes, remove from oven, turn the tots over and brush with olive oil, and bake for another 15 minutes to crisp the other side. Serve warm.
