WATCH HOW TO MAKE CAULIFLOWER FRITTERS
CAULIFLOWER FRITTERS RECIPE:
1. Place the cauliflower into the food processor and process until finely minced.
2. Transfer the cauliflower into a large mixing bowl and add the rest of the ingredients, excluding the vegetable oil. Mix everything well. (You should have a nice, paste-like mixture. If the mixture looks a little too soft and moist - add some more flour.)
3. Using an ice-cream scoop as a measure, form small, ⅓ inch-thick patties. You can make them smaller or larger depending on your personal preference.
4. Fry the patties on medium heat, in a small amount of vegetable oil for about 2 minutes per side.
5. Serve the fritters with sour cream or your favorite sauce.

How to substitute eggs..?
Hi Jyo! I haven't been able to find an egg substitute that works in this recipe. Sorry.
Can you substitute almond flour? Has anyone tried any other Gluten free substitute? Thanks.
I made them this weekend delicious! I added Parmesan and once fried I sprinkled Parm over the top! Ya all gotta make them!
That's so nice to hear! Thanks, Anamarie!
It doesn’t mention if you’re using raw cauliflower or if you’re cooking the cauliflower prior to food processing.
Hi Jan! Please, use raw cauliflower. Happy cooking!
Could you substitute zucchini for cauliflower?
Hi Donna! Yes, you could do that. I suggest you find a zucchini fritters recipe for the best proportions and detailed instructions (you'll need to remove the liquid from zucchini, etc.). Thanks for stopping by!
