- 130 g / 4.6 oz cauliflower
- A half of a banana mashed
- A half of yellow onion, grated
- Salt and pepper
- 30 g / 1.1 oz butter (for frying)
Rinse, trim and grate the cauliflower using a food processor or grater. Add cauliflower to a large bowl. Add remaining ingredients and mix. Set aside for 5–10 minutes. Melt a generous amount of butter or oil on medium heat in a large frying pan. Use the oven on low heat to keep the first batches of pancakes warm while you make the others. Place scoops of the grated cauliflower mixture in the frying pan and flatten them carefully. Fry for 4–5 minutes on each side. Adjust the heat to make sure they don’t burn.
- 1 cup powdered erythritol
- 1 tsp heavy cream
- 1/2 tsp peppermint extract
Chocolate Coating:
- 6 oz sugar-free chocolate
- 2 tsp refined coconut oil (optional)
Add the heavy cream and peppermint extract. Add the powdered sweetener slowly, mixing well after each addition.
When it is thoroughly mixed in form 24 balls and press down into one-inch circles on a piece of parchment paper. Freeze for 15 minutes.
Melt the chocolate (and coconut oil, if using) in the microwave in 30-second increments, mixing well after each. When the chocolate is 80% melted stop heating it and stir until it is completely melted.
Use a fork to dip each peppermint patty into the chocolate. Place on a new sheet of wax paper. Repeat. Chill until the chocolate sets. Store in the refrigerator.
