• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 cup olive oil

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Why It Works

• The combination of cauliflower, almond flour, and cheese creates a crispy exterior and a tender interior.
• Baking the nuggets in the oven allows them to cook evenly and develop a golden brown color.
• The olive oil coating adds flavor and helps to prevent the nuggets from sticking to the baking sheet.
