Ingredients

For the Cauliflower Cakes:
4 cups 550 g steamed cauliflower, cut into florets (about 1/2 head)
4 scallion
3 garlic cloves, peeled
2 eggs
2 teaspoons dry mustard
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 cup 80 g panko breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon kosher salt, optional
For the Lemon Dill Cream:
1 ½ cups 360 ml plain nonfat greek yogurt
1 lemon, zested
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ cup 60 g raw cashews
2 fresh dill
½ teaspoon kosher salt, optional

Fit the Food Processor with the Multi-Use Blade. Place the first 9 ingredients, through the yogurt, into the Vitamix container and secure the lid. Pulse 6-8 times, stopping to scrape down the sides of the container, then pulse an additional 6-8 times.
Preheat air fryer or oven to 400°F. Scoop 1/3 cup balls of cake mixture onto air fryer tray or a parchment-lined sheet tray. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
For the lemon dill cream sauce, place all remaining ingredients into a Vitamix blending container and secure the lid.
Start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Blend for 45 seconds, using the tamper to press ingredients toward the blades.
