Low-Carb Cauliflower Soft Pretzels
These gluten-free and low-carb cauliflower soft pretzels use riced cauliflower in place of flour, with a little cheese and egg as binder, to make a fun grain-free snack. Simply sprinkle them with pretzel salt or jazz them up with seeds or everything bagel seasoning, if you'd like. Source: EatingWell.com, April 2019

Place cauliflower in a food processor. Process until finely chopped. Transfer to a microwave-safe bowl. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and microwave on High for 3 minutes. Let cool slightly.
-
Transfer the cauliflower to a clean kitchen towel and wring out excess moisture. Return the cauliflower to the bowl and stir in egg and Cheddar.
-
Divide the mixture into 6 portions on the prepared baking sheet and flatten into circles about 3 1/2 inches in diameter. Shape to look like pretzels by poking 3 small holes into each circle and working the "dough" with your fingers. Sprinkle with salt and seeds, if using.
-
Bake until browned and crispy around the edges, 22 to 25 minutes.
