Keto Cheddar Bacon Cauliflower Bites

Preheat your oven to a high temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).

Next, place the grated cauliflower in a microwave-safe container and cook it on maximum power for 2 minutes. Allow it to relax for 5 minutes.

Then, use a clean dish towel to wring out the cauliflower as much as possible, extracting any excess moisture. Transfer the drained cauliflower to a large mixing container.

Add shredded Cheddar cheese, an egg, crispy bacon bits, chopped chives, salt, pepper, and a pinch of heat to the cauliflower mixture. Combine everything thoroughly.

After that, lightly spray a large baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Divide the cauliflower mixture into 6 equal parts, making sure to leave some space between each portion. Use your hands to flatten and shape the cauliflower into oval shapes.

Finally, bake the ovals in the preheated oven until they're nicely browned, taking around 15 minutes. Switch to the low broil setting and cook until crispy, approximately 5 minutes. Allow the finished cauliflower bites to firm up for 5 minutes before serving.
