Description
Thick, golden slices of roasted cauliflower topped with melted cheese and breadcrumbs for a comforting and indulgent dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large head of cauliflower
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: garlic powder, paprika, and fresh herbs for seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Cut the cauliflower into thick slices to create ‘steaks.’
- Brush both sides of the cauliflower steaks with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and any optional spices.
- Place the steaks on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and tender.
- In the last 5 minutes of roasting, sprinkle cheese and breadcrumbs evenly over the cauliflower steaks.
- Return to the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve hot as a side dish or main course.
Notes
For extra crunch, broil the steaks for 1 minute at the end. Let them rest for 1-2 minutes after baking for best texture.
