Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
- Wash the cauliflower and remove the leaves and core.
- Finely grate the cauliflower using a food processor or a grater.
Transfer the grated cauliflower into a clean kitchen towel. Over the sink, twist the towel tightly to squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial to ensure your bread is not too wet.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated cauliflower, beaten eggs, shredded mozzarella cheese, dried oregano, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Transfer the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread and shape it into a rectangular or circular loaf, about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick. Use your hands or a spatula to even out the surface.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and firm to the touch. Baking times may vary, so keep an eye on it.
Once baked, remove the cauliflower bread from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. Carefully slice it into pieces and serve warm.
- Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
- Pair it with a fresh salad for a light meal.
- Use it as a base for a low-carb pizza by adding your favorite toppings and baking it again until the cheese melts.
Tips:
- Make sure to squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the cauliflower to ensure the bread holds together well.
- For a crispier texture, you can bake the bread for a few extra minutes until it reaches your desired level of crispiness.
- Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices to customize the flavor to your liking.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven or toaster for best results.
Cauliflower oregano bread is not only nutritious but also incredibly tasty. By following these simple steps, you can create a delicious bread that is both healthy and satisfying. Enjoy it as a snack, a side dish, or even as a base for your favorite toppings.
