Follow The Directions

01

Step

5 mins

In a large bowl, combine the grated cauliflower, diced ham, egg, shredded Cheddar cheese, all-purpose flour, chopped green onions, olive oil, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed. (5 minutes)

02

Step

2 mins

Preheat your waffle iron to its highest heat setting. Generously coat both griddles with cooking spray to prevent sticking. (2 minutes)

03

Step

1 mins

Spoon approximately 1 cup of the cauliflower mixture onto the center of the preheated waffle iron. Ensure the batter is evenly distributed. Keep the remaining batter refrigerated to maintain its consistency. (1 minute)

04

Step

10 mins

Close the lid of the waffle iron and cook for approximately 10 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and crispy. The cooking time may vary depending on your waffle iron. (10 minutes)

05

Step

10 mins

Carefully remove the waffle from the iron using a spatula and fork. Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, ensuring each waffle is cooked to golden perfection. (variable time)

For a smoother batter, pulse the cauliflower in a food processor instead of grating it by hand.
Squeeze the grated cauliflower very dry to prevent soggy waffles.
Experiment with different cheeses! Gruyere, Swiss, or Pepper Jack would all be delicious.
Top with a poached egg instead of a fried egg for an extra touch of elegance.
Add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for added tang and creaminess.
Feel free to add other vegetables such as bell peppers or jalapenos for extra flavor.
