Cauliflower Crust Egg Cups Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: cauliflower, salt, olive oil, garlic powder, onion, parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, eggs, tomato, fresh basil, fresh spinach, broccoli, cheddar cheese

Provided by Crystal Hatch

Categories     Appetizers

Yield 6 cups

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 head cauliflower, medium-large
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
⅓ cup onion, diced
½ cup parmesan cheese, grated
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
6 eggs, whisked, separate into a batch of 2 and a batch of 4
tomato, for garnish
fresh basil, for garnish
fresh spinach, for garnish
broccoli, for garnish
cheddar cheese, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (200°C).
  • Using a food processor or a cheese grater, grate the cauliflower until fine or "riced."
  • Transfer the riced cauliflower to a large microwave-safe bowl, sprinkle with salt and microwave for 5 minutes. This will steam the cauliflower to help you remove the moisture.
  • Allow cauliflower to cool and transfer into a second bowl lined with a thin towel (cheesecloth and paper towels will also work). Wrap the cauliflower tightly and squeeze out the liquid. You may need to switch towels to ensure as much liquid has been removed as possible.
  • Return the cauliflower to your large bowl and add olive oil, garlic powder, onion, parmesan, salt, pepper, and 2 of the eggs. Combine well.
  • Line a lightly greased muffin tin with the cauliflower mixture, using your fingers to press it firmly into the bottom and sides, creating a crust.
  • Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the crust turns golden brown.
  • Pour the remaining whisked eggs evenly into the cauliflower cups, then add toppings of your choice. We used tomatoes and basil, spinach and mushrooms, and broccoli and cheddar cheese.
  • Bake an additional 15-20 minutes or until eggs are cooked through.
  • Allow to cool slightly before serving.
  • Enjoy!

  • Slice the onions evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Use a sharp knife to make thin, uniform slices.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: This will prevent the onions from sticking and burning.
  • Cook the onions over medium heat: This will allow them to caramelize slowly and develop a rich flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the onions will steam instead of caramelizing.
  • Season the onions with salt and pepper: This will enhance their flavor.
  • Add your favorite fillings: Once the onions are caramelized, you can add your favorite fillings, such as eggs, cheese, bacon, or vegetables.
  • Enjoy! Breakfast onion cups are a delicious and easy way to start your day.
