Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

In a large bowl, toss the florets with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.

Step 4

Spread the cauliflower florets in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

While the cauliflower is roasting, heat the heavy cream in a saucepan over medium-low heat.

Step 7

Add the cream cheese to the saucepan and stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Once the cauliflower is roasted, transfer it to a baking dish.

Step 10

Pour the cheese sauce over the cauliflower, ensuring full coverage of all florets.

Step 11

Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cup of cheddar cheese over the top.

Step 12

Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
