You can make a large batch ahead of time and keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze them for up to 3 months. Just layer with parchment paper and take them out when you need them.
Tips:
- If you don’t have a blender or a food processor, you can use a cheese grater to grate the cauliflower (it works just as well, but will take some elbow grease).
- I added pistachio and sultanas to give the bread a sweet and savory twist. You can omit them to have a plain bread, or simply add your favorite herbs and spices.
