Cauliflower Breakfast Bowls

Ingredients

  • 2 small apples, preferably Pink Lady or Honeycrisp
  • 1 tsp coconut oil
  • 1 Tbsp maple syrup, divided
  • 1/2 medium cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 Tbsp chopped toasted walnuts
  • 1 Tbsp pomegranate seeds

Instructions

  • Core one of the apples and cut into 8 wedges.
  • In frying pan, melt oil over medium-high heat. Add apple wedges and sauté until tender and starting to caramelize, about 2 minutes. Pour 1 tsp (5 mL) maple syrup over apples and let syrup reduce for 30 seconds. Remove frying pan from heat and set aside.
  • In food processor fitted with steel blade attachment, place cauliflower and pulse until consistency of rice.
  • In small saucepan over medium heat, place 2 cups (500 mL) cauliflower rice (reserving rest for another use) and almond milk. Bring to a simmer and stir in cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and remaining 2 tsp (10 mL) maple syrup. Cover and cook, stirring often, for 6 minutes. Meanwhile, finely grate second apple. Stir shredded apple into cauliflower mixture and continue to cook, stirring often, until cauliflower is tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 5 minutes.
  • To serve, divide cauliflower mixture into 2 bowls and top with caramelized apple wedges, walnuts, and pomegranate seeds.
