For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the batter. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses, such as cheddar or Gruyere. These fritters are best served immediately, but can be reheated in the oven or air fryer for a few minutes to restore their crispness.

01
Step
10 mins
Prepare the Cauliflower: Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower and cook until tender (5-10 minutes). Drain well and break the cauliflower into small, manageable pieces. In a bowl, combine the cooked cauliflower with the chopped bacon and green onions. Season generously with salt and pepper.

Step

Create the Batter: Sift the flour into a separate bowl. In a measuring cup, whisk together the milk, beaten egg, Parmesan cheese, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the bowl with the flour, whisking continuously until you achieve a smooth batter.
03
Step
7 mins
Combine and Cook: Gently fold the batter into the cauliflower mixture until everything is evenly incorporated. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the prepared surface. Cook until the fritters are golden brown on the bottom (3-4 minutes). Flip and continue cooking until the other side is also golden brown and cooked through (2-3 minutes).
04
StepServe: Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter. Serve immediately while hot and crispy. Enjoy!

Jan 19, 2025I found that letting the batter rest for about 15 minutes before cooking helped the fritters to be even lighter and fluffier.
