Cauliflower Corn Tortillas Recipes

HOW TO MAKE CAULIFLOWER TORTILLAS - RECIPE WITH 4 INGREDIENTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Pulse the cauliflower florets in a food processor until they are the consistency of rice. (Use the grate attachment if you have one.)
• Transfer to a large bowl and microwave on high for 8-10 minutes (or steam using your favorite method), until cooked. Cool until the cauliflower is cool enough to handle. Transfer to a cheese cloth or towel and squeeze tightly to get rid of as much extra liquid as possible. It should be dense and clumpy.
• Switch the food processor to the S blade and place the cauliflower back in. Add the eggs, mozzarella and salt. Process until smooth.
• Sprinkle the xanthan gum on top (do not dump it in one clump). Process until smooth.
• Drop the cauliflower mixture into six areas on the lined baking sheets. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to spread into thin circles. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the edges are dry and the bottom is golden. (If both baking sheets don't fit in the oven side by side, do one at a time.) Carefully flip over, then bake for 4-6 more minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before moving.
• To make the sauce, whisk all ingredients in a small container. Cover and refrigerate to allow the flavors to develop (you can do this overnight if you have time).
• Spread a tablespoon of the sauce over each cauliflower tortilla. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top. Fold in half.
• Heat an oiled pan over medium heat. Place two folded quesadillas in the pan. Fry for a couple of minutes, until browned, then flip and repeat on the other side. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas.

CAULIFLOWER TORTILLAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Remove the leaves and core from the cauliflower. Break the florets up into small pieces (including any thick stem parts). Transfer half of the cauliflower to a food processor along with half of the mozzarella. Pulse until the cauliflower breaks down and looks like rice. Transfer to a large bowl and repeat with the remaining cauliflower and mozzarella.
• Toss the cauliflower mixture with 1 teaspoon salt and let sit for 10 minutes. Scoop batches of the cauliflower mixture onto a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out any excess moisture. Transfer to another large bowl, then add the eggs and mix to combine.
• Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper and oil the paper. Scoop out leveled 1/4 cups of the cauliflower mixture and evenly space 6 mounds on each baking sheet. Use your fingers to press and spread the mixture out into neat rounds about 5 inches wide (just like regular tortillas), making sure there aren't any holes. Bake, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until the tortillas are firm and browned on the bottom, about 20 minutes. Cool completely on the baking sheets. Wrap and refrigerate for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
• To use the tortillas for tacos: Heat a little oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tortilla and cook until warmed through and browned in spots, about 30 seconds per side.
• To use the tortillas for quesadillas: Cook as you would a quesadilla made with corn or flour tortillas.
