Roasted Cauliflower

Crispy, caramelized roasted cauliflower made with just a few pantry ingredients. This easy recipe transforms mild florets into irresistibly sweet, crispy perfection.

📝 Ingredients

• 1 head cauliflower ((cut into bite-size florets))
• 2 tablespoons olive oil (, plus more as needed)
• 1/4 cup panko bread crumbs
• 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
• kosher salt
• ground black pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat oven to 425° F position the rack at the bottom for browning.
2. 2In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower, olive oil, garlic (if using), garlic powder, half the parmesan cheese, nutmeg, and half of the panko. Season with plenty salt and pepper.
3. 3Transfer the ingredients to a parchment-lined sheet pan or a baking dish. Sprinkle remaining panko on top.
4. 4Roast for about 15 minutes or until they start to brown. Turn with a spatula and continue to roast until golden brown and tender yet slightly on the edges, about 30 minutes total.
5. 5Sprinkle on the remaining parmesan cheese. To crisp up further, you can place under the broiler for about 5 minutes.
