Ingredients
- 1 cup grated cauliflower (about 1/4 of a medium head)
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions
Preheat and Prepare
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Prepare the Cauliflower
- Grate the cauliflower finely and place it in a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible to prevent soggy crisps.
Mix the Ingredients
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the grated cauliflower, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and black pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
Form the Crisps
- Scoop about 1 to 2 tablespoons of the mixture and form it into a flat disc (about 2 inches in diameter). Place it on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining mixture, leaving some space between each crisp.
Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15–20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
Cool and Garnish
- Let the crisps cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Garnish with chopped parsley or chives, if desired.
Serve
- Serve warm as a snack or alongside a low-carb dip like guacamole or marinara sauce.
Recipe Note
Here are some low-carb sides that pair perfectly with your cauliflower parmesan crisps:
1. Dips and Sauces

Low-Carb Marinara Sauce: A tangy tomato-based dip without added sugars.
Greek Yogurt Dip: Mix plain Greek yogurt with garlic, lemon juice, and fresh herbs.
Pesto: A flavorful basil-based dip with Parmesan and olive oil.
2. Vegetables
Roasted Veggies: Zucchini, asparagus, or bell peppers roasted with olive oil and seasoning. Cucumber or Zucchini Slices: Refreshing and crunchy to complement the crisps.
Steamed Broccoli or Cauliflower: Lightly seasoned with a squeeze of lemon or garlic butter.
3. Salads
Caprese Salad: Cherry tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and basil with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
Spinach and Arugula Salad: Tossed with olive oil, lemon, and a sprinkle of nuts.
Caesar Salad: Use a low-carb dressing and skip the croutons.
4. Protein Add-Ons
Grilled Chicken Skewers: Small bites seasoned with herbs.
Deviled Eggs: Made with mustard and a little mayo for a creamy snack.
Smoked Salmon: Rolled with cream cheese or served alongside.
5. Nuts and Seeds
Almonds or Walnuts: A handful of roasted nuts adds crunch and healthy fats.
Chia Seed Pudding: A slightly sweet, creamy side for a dessert-like pairing.
These options will complement the crisps while keeping the meal low-carb and diabetes-friendly.
