Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the cauliflower into medium-sized florets and transfer them onto the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle olive oil over the cauliflower and season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss to coat the cauliflower evenly.
Spread the cauliflower in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the florets are golden brown and tender.
Remove the cauliflower from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before transferring it to a food processor.
Add butter to the food processor and blend the cauliflower until it becomes a smooth mash.
Transfer the cauliflower mash to a large bowl and fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream until well combined.
Spoon the mixture back onto the baking sheet, forming individual mounds to resemble loaded baked potatoes.
Top each mound with crumbled bacon and return to the oven under the broiler for about 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately.
