1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spray it generously with avocado oil cooking spray.
2
Pulse the cauliflower florets in a food processor until they resemble rice grains. Do this in batches to ensure a consistent size.
3
Transfer the processed cauliflower to a large non-stick pan heated over medium heat. Cook for about 5 minutes stirring occasionally to remove any excess water and lightly cook the cauliflower.
4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked cauliflower, egg, grated onion, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, coconut flour, sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and minced garlic.
5
Form about 34 small bite-sized domes, about 1 inch in diameter, using a tablespoon or small ice cream scoop, and place them on the prepared baking sheet, about 1 inch apart.
6
Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden and crunchy on the outside.
7
Serve hot with marinara sauce for a delightful dipping experience.
