All you need is five simple ingredients for Healthy Cauliflower Fritters that come together in minutes and pair perfectly with a cool dollop of sour cream or yogurt.

It takes only a few minutes scanning around these pages to discover that I am a fritter fanatic.

What started as a love affair with 5-Ingredient Zucchini Fritters has since led me to transform countless ingredients into stackable fritters. The results have coaxed even the tiniest and pickiest of eaters into enjoying their veggies. So now that I’ve disguised greens into a guilt-free snack, cauliflower is up next!

My favorite veggie has been popping up in unassuming places around here (looking at you, Cauliflower Fried “Rice!”) and now it’s becoming the star of the side dish show with this simple, six-ingredient recipe for Healthy Cauliflower Fritters.

Begin by blanching the cauliflower just until it’s tender enough to pierce with a fork. This ensures your fritters will have a softer texture and makes the cauliflower easier to chop. And that’s the real beauty of this recipe, there’s no food processor required! Just grab your sharpest chef’s knife and burn a few extra calories as you transform the cruciferous veggie into tiny pieces.

Mix the cauliflower with eggs, scallions, garlic and flour, and then shape the mixture into patties. All that’s left to do is fire up the flames and coat a nonstick pan lightly with oil. Drop heaping tablespoons of the mixture into the hot pan and flatten them slightly with a spatula.

A few minutes one one side, followed by a flip, and the resulting cauliflower fritters will be golden brown and slightly crispy around the edges.

Enjoy the cauliflower fritters plain, or serve them topped with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream and extra scallions for garnishing.
