Cauliflower mug bread is a single-serving bread recipe made in mug and cooked in the microwave. You only need 4 ingredients and it’s ready in just a few minutes!
My two favorite types of recipes to create are mug cakes and cauliflower recipes. For the last few weeks, I have been wanting to find out if I could create a shortcut cauliflower recipe in the microwave. And the answer is yes!
This cauliflower mug bread, of course, doesn’t have the exact same texture as bread. It tastes like the cauliflower bread base used in cauliflower bread sticks or cauliflower pizza crust. You don’t need to wring the cauliflower dry, though, and you don’t need to wait forever to bake in the oven. Instead, it cooks in about 2 minutes.
How To Make Perfect Cauliflower Rice
I had so much fun making these. I ended up ricing a bunch of cauliflower and made several of these, bagging the rest for later in the week. I’m so excited to share this recipe with you now!
Riced cauliflower: I like to rice my own cauliflower florets in a food processor. You can use frozen cauliflower rice, but you will need to thaw it and then pat it dry, which adds time.
Egg: You only need a small amount of egg for this cauliflower bread. Whisk a whole egg in a small bowl and then measure out one tablespoon to mix into the batter mixture.

Mix all of the ingredients in a microwave-safe mug. Once mixed, use the spoon to pack the batter into the mug and then smooth the top.
Microwave the mug bread for 1 1/2 minutes. At this point, check on the bread. If the edges are pulling away from the mug and the top look dry, it’s ready. If the batter is still really wet, add up to 30 seconds more of cooking time.

For the most part, we try our best to eat wholesome food that is nutritious. BUT when you are eating this cauliflower recipe, it doesn’t even taste like it should be healthy. It’s so comforting, cheesy, and scrumptious it’s hard not to go back for seconds. Try it for yourself, and you will see what all the fuss is about.

It really doesn’t get much easier than this recipe for this low carb keto cheesy cauliflower rice. I think you are really going to like the minimal ingredients, just five common ingredients plus a little salt and pepper. Let’s take a look:
Baked Feta Cauliflower Rice With Shrimp
Frozen Cauliflower Rice: Head to your local grocer and grab a could of bags of frozen riced cauliflower. It’s easy because it’s already made, and you just have to thaw and drain it. I always buy extra because I use it in many keto recipes.
Sour Cream: What makes this recipe stand apart from others is the sour cream. I love the rich and creaminess it provides.
Cream Cheese: It’s best to start with softened cream cheese. Cold cream cheese is going to result in lumpy rice, and it’s just not very good. You can place it on the counter for an hour or so before you begin or place it in a microwave-safe dish and heat for 10 - 15 seconds until it’s softened.
Creamy Cauliflower Soup
Cheese: I use a combination of cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese. If possible, shred it yourself because it will melt better in your low carb recipes and doesn't have additives like potato starch.
Salt & Pepper - Feel free to add extra or omit it depending on what you like. Cheese is naturally a little salty, so you don’t need a lot of added salt.
If you are always hunting for easy sides, this is one of the best! You barely have to lift a finger, and it comes together beautifully every time. Here are the easy steps to follow:

Step Two: Add all of the cheese except ⅓ cup for the topping to a dish. Stir the cauliflower, sour cream, mayo, cream cheese, salt, pepper, and the rest of the shredded cheese together.
Sauteed - If you want to saute the cauli-rice to boost the flavor you can. Just saute in butter or olive oil before proceeding with the recipe.
Loaded - Make loaded cheesy cauli-rice by adding bacon crumbles or real bacon bits, sliced green onions or scallions, and then topping it with pork rinds crumbs that have been browned in butter. This is an amazing variation of this recipe!
Crispy Cauliflower Rice Recipe
Saucy - If you like to have a lot of cheese sauce you can add some heavy cream or chicken broth to thin the sauce. Or even double the ingredients (minus the cauliflower)
Broccoli - You can also try other types of riced vegetables in this. Riced broccoli works well as do blends of cauliflower rice with other chopped veggies.
Yes, you are welcome to use fresh cauliflower rice if you’d rather. To make it, you will need to cut it into pieces and add it to your food processor. Mix until it resembles rice, and you are good to go. Be sure not to overprocess it, or the texture is going to be off.
How To Make Cauliflower Rice (easy To Store & Freeze)
Sure! You can prepare and bake this cheesy keto cauliflower in advance. After it’s cooled down, place it in a container that has a tight-fitting lid. It typically lasts 4-5 days in the fridge.
Due to its mild flavor and the fact that it’s low in carbs, it’s a popular ingredient in the keto community. But, it’s also super healthy and has valuable nutrients too. It is a great source of fiber, vitamin K, vitamin C, potassium, magnesium, and iron. Plus, it also is an antioxidant too. So, eat your cauliflower because you can’t go wrong.
Any of your favorite keto meals. Really. We like it with so many different gluten free dishes they are impossible to name.

Substitutions: You can exchange the cheddar and Monterey jack for any other kind of cheese you like. I like to have a variety of cheese instead of just one kind because it gives it more flavor.
