Cheesy Cauliflower Biscuits

Ingredients:

1 cauliflower head, leaves removed

3 garlic cloves, minced

⅓ cup plain Greek yogurt

½ cup cheddar cheese, shredded

2 eggs

2 egg whites

1 teaspoon kosher salt

½ teaspoon black pepper 

Directions:

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400°F. Steam cauliflower for about 10-12 minutes or until very tender, then transfer to a food processor. Add minced garlic and pulse several times until smooth and creamy.

Step 2: Transfer mashed cauliflower into a large mixing bowl. Add in two whole eggs, cheddar cheese, Greek yogurt, salt and pepper and mix together. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff. Then, slowly fold the egg whites into the cauliflower mixture.

Step 3: Grease a mini muffin pan (or use parchment liners, or a silicone mini muffin tray). Then fill the cups to the top with the cauliflower mixture. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from the pan, and set on a cooling rack.
