Cauliflower was not one of my favorite vegetable before discovering some really yummy recipes like the one I am sharing with you today. I love anything made with béchamel sauce. After going grain free I didn’t prepare any dishes that I use to make before . I just thought to myself why not try it with coconut flour. It worked really well and was happy to enjoy the texture of béchamel  with even a more flavorful taste. I actually really ended up loving it better than the one made with white flour.

Today’s recipes is very easy and I am certainly sure that you will love the taste.

You can also apply the same steps below for a broccoli Casserole or even better, a combination of both cauliflower and broccoli.

 

How to make this paleo Cauliflower casserole with béchamel sauce

  Ingredients

  1. 1 big cauliflower head or 2 small
  2. A pinch of salt. I buy this kind
  3. A pinch pepper

 

For the béchamel sauce

  1. 2 tablespoons butter. I buy this kind
  2. 2 tablespoons coconut flour. I buy this kind
  3. 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder. I buy this kind
  4. 1 cup heavy whipping cream or coconut cream (for dairy free)
  5. 1/2 cup water
  6. salt and pepper
  7. 1 tablespoon cream cheese (optional)
  8. 1/2 cup gruyere cheese (for dairy free omit cheese)

Instructions

  • In a double boiler, steam the cauliflower/broccoli sprinkled with salt and pepper until it’s it’s tender.
  • Pour into a baking dish

 Preparation of the Béchamel sauce:

  • Put butter in a pan and let it melt at low temperature
  • Add coconut flour and mix really quick
  • Add the whipping cream and keep steering
  • Cook for about 10 mittens at low temperature
  • Add  arrowroot  powder
  • Add  water and salt and pepper
  • Let cook 5 more minutes
  • Add  cream cheese
  • The sauce should not be too loose, nor too hard. If you see that there is few nibs that didn’t melt put it in a food processor for few seconds.
  • Preheat the Oven at 350
  • Pour the sauce on top of the cauliflower/broccoli
  • Add the shredded Gruyere cheese on top
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until the top starts to golden.
