Instructions
1. Preheat & Prepare
Preheat oven to 175°C / 350°F
Line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper
2. Prepare the Cauliflower
Cut cauliflower into florets
Pulse in a food processor until it resembles fine rice (snow-like texture)
Measure about 3 cups
Place in a clean cloth or cheesecloth and squeeze out all excess liquid
This step is essential for a firm, non-soggy bread.
3. Beat the Egg Whites
In a clean bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form (about 2 minutes)
This gives the bread its light and airy texture.
4. Mix the Base
In another bowl, whisk:
Egg yolks
Olive oil
Add:
Almond flour
Parmesan cheese
Baking powder
Salt
Thyme
Mix well, then fold in the cauliflower
5. Combine Gently
Fold in the egg whites gradually (in 3 parts)
Mix gently to keep the batter light
6. Bake
Pour the batter into the loaf pan
Sprinkle extra Parmesan on top
Bake for 45–50 minutes, until:
Golden brown on top
A toothpick comes out clean
7. Cool & Slice
Let rest in the pan for 5 minutes
Transfer to a rack and cool completely before slicing
