Cauliflower hash browns are a nutritious &delicious way to introduce your baby to vegetables. They’re packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber, and they’re also a good source of protein.

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Optional seasonings: a pinch of salt, pepper, or dried herbs (adjust to taste)

Instructions:

  1. Steam the cauliflower: Steam the cauliflower florets until tender-crisp. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes
  2. Mash or blend: Once the cauliflower is cooked, let it cool slightly. Then, mash it with a fork or use a blender to create a coarse puree.
  3. Mix with egg: In a bowl, combine the mashed cauliflower with the egg and any desired seasonings. Mix well until everything is combined.
  4. Shape the patties: Use your hands or a small spatula to form the mixture into small, flat patties.
  5. Cook the patties: Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Carefully place the patties in the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Serve and enjoy: Let the patties cool slightly before serving to your baby. You can serve them plain or with a side of yogurt, avocado, or fruit puree.

Tips:

  • Adjust the seasoning: If you’re unsure about using salt and pepper, you can omit them or use a very small amount. You can also experiment with other herbs and spices like dill, parsley, or paprika.
  • Make it ahead: You can make the cauliflower hash brown mixture ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Freeze for later: You can also freeze the cooked patties for future meals. Simply reheat them in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
