Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cut the cauliflower into small florets. Steam them for about 5-7 minutes until slightly tender but not fully cooked. Drain and set aside.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Stir in the heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Bring to a gentle simmer and allow the flavors to infuse for about 3-4 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in half of the Gruyère cheese until melted and well combined.
In a baking dish, layer the cauliflower florets evenly. Pour the cream mixture over the top, ensuring the cauliflower is well coated.
Sprinkle the remaining Gruyère cheese and Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of the cauliflower.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle with fresh thyme before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your low-carb Kartoffelgratin!
