Cauliflower Hash Browns
Cauliflower Hash Browns are a healthier, low-carb alternative to traditional hash browns, easy to prepare and packed with flavor.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 medium head medium head cauliflower, broken into florets (to yield 2 cups shredded, packed)
- 2 large eggs (can sub with flax eggs)
- 1/3 cup green onions, sliced, plus more for garnish (approx. 2 onions)
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for greasing pan)
Instructions
Preparation
- Grate the cauliflower head on a cheese grater or use a food processor to create cauliflower 'rice.'
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cauliflower with eggs, green onion, sea salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir to mix well.
Cooking
- Heat 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil over medium-high heat in a skillet or griddle.
- Add 1/4 cup of the cauliflower mixture to the pan and gently press down with a spatula to flatten to be about 3 inches wide.
- Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the edges start to turn golden brown, and the hash brown begins to stick together.
- Carefully flip over and cook an additional 2-3 minutes to let the edges brown and the cauliflower cook through.
- Garnish with chopped green onion, if desired, and serve hot.
Notes
Ensure you wring out any excess moisture from the shredded cauliflower before mixing. Don’t overcrowd the pan when cooking. Experiment with different spices or add-ins such as cheese or herbs for extra flavor.
