Instructions

Step 1

Turn the oven on to gas mark 7 / 220°C / fan 200°C. Add a sheet of parchment paper onto your baking tray.

Step 2

Blitz your carrots, cauliflower and onion in a food processor into tiny little pieces.

Step 3

Add your blitzed veggies into a bowl along with your turkey mince, egg, breadcrumbs, garlic, mixed herbs and cheddar.

Step 4

Grab a clump of your mixture and shape it into the size of a golf ball, then flatten slightly. Keep repeating this process until all your mixture is used up, then set it aside.

Step 5

Now time to create your coating station! Pour your whole-wheat flour into a large bowl. Then into a second large bowl, add your two beaten eggs and place that next to your flour bowl. Then into a third large bowl, mix your garlic powder, breadcrumbs and oats and place that next to your egg bowl.

Step 6

The coating begins! Grab one of your clumps of mixture and put it into the flour, covering it evenly. Then place the floured nugget into the egg bowl, shaking off any excess. Next, gently roll your nugget in the breadcrumb mixture until it's completely covered and place it on your baking tray. Repeat this until all your nuggets are coated.

Step 7

Pop the tray into the oven for 10 mins, then flip your nuggets and cook for another 10 mins. Mix your cream cheese with your sweet chilli sauce and get dunking! A nostalgic favourite transformed into your kid's new fave healthy snack.

Enjoy!
