Ingredients
- 1 whole Medium cauliflower head
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese, softened
- 0.75 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 3 slices Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Sour cream
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Cut the cauliflower into florets and steam them until they are fork-tender, about 10-12 minutes. Alternatively, microwave them in a covered dish with a tablespoon of water for 8-10 minutes until soft.
Step 3
Once cooked, drain the cauliflower well and pat it dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Step 4
Place the drained cauliflower into a food processor along with cream cheese, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Spoon the cauliflower mixture into an oven-safe baking dish or individual ramekins for portioned servings.
Step 6
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the mixture.
Step 7
Transfer the dish or ramekins to the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 8
While the mixture bakes, cook the bacon until crispy (if not already cooked) and crumble it into small pieces.
Step 9
Once baked, remove the cauliflower mixture from the oven and top with crumbled bacon and green onions.
Step 10
Optionally, serve with a dollop of sour cream on top for added creaminess. Enjoy your delicious low-carb twice baked potato!
