  • Preheat your air fryer to 370. I like to gently spray my fryer basket with nonstick before placing it into the air fryer.

  • In a large bowl, combine together the cauliflower, egg, bread crumbs, cheeses, and seasoning. Mix these together until you are able to form your tots. You can use a tablespoon to help you with this. If your mix need additional liquid, simply add a bit of water a teaspoon at a time. Tip: apply a bit of oil to your hands to help keep the ingredients from sticking to your hands.

  • Place 6-8 tots (depending on the size) into the fryer taking care to not overlap them. Fry for 5-7 minutes or until done. Repeat the process until all of your tots are done.

Recipe Notes

As mentioned, you can find low carb bread crumbs or alternatives for low carb bread crumbs online.
Another option would be to make your own low carb bread crumbs.
Simply make your own low carb bread or buy low carb bread online. Toast the bread and allow it to cool and thoroughly dry out. Then place the toasted bread in a blender or food processor to make the crumbs.
 

Personalizing this recipe can easily be done with your choice of seasonings.

You could go with a simple seasoned salt and herb such as chives or parsley. However, there are other great seasonings that you could alternatively use tasty seasonings such as one of these.
 
Cauliflower- ½ large head (about four cups). Steam this in boiling water until tender- about three to four minutes. Alternatively, you can use cauliflower rice (about 4 cups).
