I first came up with this recipe when I was looking for a way to use up some leftover cauliflower. I had tried roasting it, but I found it to be a bit bland. Then I tried making it into a soup, but it was too watery. Finally, I decided to try making fritters, and they turned out great! The fritters were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and they were packed with flavor.
Prep time: 15 | Cook time: 12 | Serves: 4
Ingredients
1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
1 cup packed spinach
3 large eggs
1/2 cup almond flour
1/4 cup nutritional yeast
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower, spinach, eggs, almond flour, nutritional yeast, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
Use a tablespoon to scoop the mixture into the air fryer basket, forming 1-inch fritters.
Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Flip the fritters halfway through cooking to ensure even cooking.
Remove from the air fryer and serve immediately.
Why It Works
The almond flour gives the fritters a nice crispy texture.
The nutritional yeast adds a subtle nutty flavor.
The oregano adds a touch of herbiness.
The salt and pepper help to balance out the flavors.
