Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower, medium stalks removed and cut into florets
  • ½ cup lupin flour
  • ½ cup oat fiber
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Place the cauliflower in a large pot on water and bring to the boil. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes until the cauliflower is soft and cooked through.
  • Drain the cauliflower and set aside to cool.
  • Squeeze the excess water out of the cauliflower. We use a nut bag but a cheesecloth would work too.
  • Place the cauliflower into a large bowl and mash.
  • Add the salt, lupin flour and oat fiber and mix until you have a dough.
  • Place the dough in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to firm before rolling.
  • Take a section of the dough and roll into a long log. Cut the log into small bite sized pieces. Repeat for the rest of the dough.
  • Alternatively, roll small pieces of the dough into gnocchi balls.

Air Fry

  • Preheat the air fryer as per the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Lightly spray the basket with oil and place one layer of the cauliflower gnocchi into the basket. Give the gnocchi a light spray of oil too.
  • Cook at 200C/400F degrees for 8-10 minutes until the gnocchi are golden.

Pan Fry

  • Heat a couple of tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet on a medium heat.
  • Cook the gnocchi balls for 3-5 minutes, turning over until golden on each side.

Oven Bake

  • Preheat the oven to 200C/400F degrees.
  • Place the gnocchi on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden.
