Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Paprika
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cut the cauliflower into florets and place them on a baking sheet.
Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat uniformly.
Roast the cauliflower in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned.
While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the cheese sauce. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
Add the heavy cream and cream cheese. Stir until the cream cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth.
Gradually add the shredded cheddar cheese, stirring continuously until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is creamy.
Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Once the cauliflower is roasted, remove it from the oven and transfer it to a casserole dish.
Pour the cheese sauce over the cauliflower, making sure that it's well covered.
Place the casserole under the broiler for 3-5 minutes or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Serve hot and enjoy your Keto Cauliflower Cheese.
