Preheat the oven to 400°F. Steam cauliflower florets until tender, about 5 minutes then let cool slightly.

In a food processor, pulse the cauliflower until finely chopped. Transfer to a bowl.

Add shredded cheddar, egg, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the cauliflower. Mix until well combined.

Form mixture into small tots and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
