Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray or olive oil.
2. Steam the cauliflower: Place the cauliflower florets in a microwave-safe bowl and add a splash of water. Cover with a microwave-safe lid or plastic wrap and microwave on high for 5-6 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender. Alternatively, you can steam the cauliflower on the stovetop until tender. Drain any excess water and let the cauliflower cool slightly.
3. Prepare the cauliflower mixture: Once the cauliflower has cooled, transfer it to a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and wring out as much moisture as possible. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower with eggs, shredded mozzarella cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
4. Form the cauliflower bites: Using your hands or a spoon, scoop out portions of the cauliflower mixture and shape them into small bite-sized balls or patties. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart.
5. Bake the cauliflower bites: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bites are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
6. Make the dipping sauce (optional): While the cauliflower bites are baking, prepare the dipping sauce by combining mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, fresh lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Mix until smooth and well combined.
7. Serve: Once the cauliflower bites are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with the optional dipping sauce on the side.
8. Enjoy: Enjoy these delicious keto cauliflower cheese bites as a snack, appetizer, or side dish! They’re crispy, cheesy, and perfect for satisfying your cravings while staying low-carb.
