Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• ¼ cup skim milk
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• ¼ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• 2 cups cauliflower florets
• 1 clove garlic
• cooking spray
• 1 tablespoon mustard
• ⅓ onion, chopped
• 2 potatoes, cut into cubes
• 1 jarred roasted red pepper, drained and chopped

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add potatoes, cauliflower, and onion; cover and steam until tender, 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 2

Blend steamed vegetables, flour, Cheddar cheese, milk, eggs, mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper in a blender until batter is thick; transfer to a bowl. Stir red pepper into batter.

Step 3

Spray a hinged griddle or flat griddle with cooking spray and turn heat to medium. Spoon batter, 1 to 2 tablespoons per cake, onto the hot griddle; close griddle or flip cakes and cook until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
