Cauliflower “Popcorn”

 Cauliflower "Popcorn" Recipe


Cauliflower "Popcorn" Recipe

Cauliflower "popcorn" is a fun and healthy snack or side dish that's crispy, flavorful, and easy to make. It’s a great way to enjoy cauliflower with a satisfying crunch!


Ingredients

(Serves 4)

  • 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into small florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (or melted coconut oil)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (or regular paprika)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper for heat
  • Optional garnish: fresh parsley or grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

2. Prepare the Cauliflower

  • Cut the cauliflower into small, bite-sized florets, similar in size to popcorn pieces.

3. Season the Cauliflower

  • In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and cayenne (if using) until the cauliflower is evenly coated.

4. Roast the Cauliflower

  • Spread the seasoned cauliflower evenly on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Roast for 25-30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the cauliflower is golden brown and crispy on the edges.

5. Serve

  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley or grated Parmesan, if desired.
  • Serve immediately as a snack, appetizer, or side dish.

Tips

  • Crispiness: For extra crispiness, make sure the cauliflower florets are spaced out on the baking sheet so they can roast properly without steaming.
  • Season Variations: You can switch up the spices with curry powder, Italian seasoning, or even a drizzle of buffalo sauce for a spicy kick.
  • Make Ahead: This cauliflower "popcorn" is best served immediately but can be stored in an airtight container for 1-2 days. Reheat in the oven to restore some of the crispiness.

Enjoy your crunchy, savory Cauliflower "Popcorn" as a guilt-free snack! 🧄🌱
