Move over, boring burger buns—these cauliflower thins are the new star of your sandwich game. Who knew cauliflower could transform into a low-carb hero, subbing in for buns, pizza crusts, or even a slice of bread? While store-bought versions exist, they can cost a pretty penny. Luckily, whipping them up at home is a cinch—and once you try this easy recipe, you’ll never look back. It makes four generous rounds, but I often double it and freeze the extras (they warm up perfectly in a toaster!).Ready to give your favorite burger or breakfast sandwich a lighter, veggie-powered upgrade? Let’s get started!

1Tablespoonnutritional yeast
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°
Microwave fresh or frozen riced or grated cauliflower for 4 min. Placed cauliflower onto a clean towel, cheesecloth, or strainer. Once cool to the touch you want to squeeze out as much water as possible from the cauliflower (so you don't have a soggy end product).
In a bowl mix all ingredients together well.
On a parchment lined baking sheet scoop 1/2 cup portions onto sheet, then flatten into patty shapes. These won't spread or raise so the end result should be about the same thickness and size.
Bake at 400 for 20 min, FLIP and bake another 4 min. Total baking time 24 min.
