Begin by cutting the cauliflower into medium-sized florets and dispose of the leaves and stem.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the cauliflower florets and cook for about 10-12 minutes or until tender. Drain the cauliflower thoroughly and set aside.
In a food processor or blender, combine the cooked cauliflower, 2 tablespoons of butter, heavy cream, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.
In a saucepan over medium heat, add olive oil and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter.
Once the butter is melted, add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, approximately 3-4 minutes.
Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Sprinkle in the xanthan gum while whisking constantly to thicken the gravy. Allow it to simmer for about 3-5 minutes until it reaches the desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the mashed cauliflower on a plate and generously ladle the gravy over the top. Enjoy your Keto Mashed Potatoes and Gravy!
