Ingredients Needed:
6 cups of raw cauliflower florets
½ cup of heavy whipping cream
1 cup of shredded gouda cheese
2 ounces of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
½ teaspoon of garlic powder
½ teaspoon of onion powder
2 tablespoons of cheddar cheese powder
How to make:
Step 1: Prepare the Cauliflower
Begin by chopping a head of cauliflower into bite-sized pieces. Place the cauliflower florets in a microwave-safe bowl with a tablespoon or two of water. Cover and cook in the microwave for 5 minutes until tender. Drain any excess water.
Step 2: Create the Creamy Cheese Sauce
While the cauliflower is cooking, prepare the creamy cheese sauce. In a medium saucepan, combine half of the gouda and cheddar cheeses, along with all the powdered cheese, cream, and spices. Whisk until the cheeses are melted and the sauce is smooth.
Step 3: Assemble and Bake
Transfer the steamed cauliflower to a baking or casserole dish sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Pour the creamy sauce over the cauliflower and mix well to coat. Top with the remaining shredded cheddar and gouda cheeses. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F for 40 minutes until golden brown and bubbly. Garnish with chopped green onions or bacon bits for an extra burst of flavor.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
Once baked to perfection, serve your luxurious keto cauliflower mac and cheese hot from the oven. Whether as a side dish or a main course, this decadent delight is sure to impress even the most discerning palates.
