Serves: 4 servings
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 40 minutes
Total Time: 55 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1/3 cup melted butter or vegan butter
  • 1 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, regular or gluten-free if needed. I blended 1 1/2 cups of these grain-free crackers into crumbs
  • 1/3 cup grated parmesan
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dry basil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • Cooking spray, I use olive oil spray

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 F
  2. Combine the crumbs, parmesan and spices in a bowl.
  3. Pour the melted butter into a large bowl, and toss in the cauliflower florets. Mix well to make sure they're all coated.
  4. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Dip each buttered cauliflower floret into the crumb mixture and layer onto the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining cauliflower.
  5. Drizzle any leftover melted butter from the bowl over the cauliflower florets, or spray them lightly with cooking spray.
  6. Bake for 30 minutes, flip and bake for additional 10 minutes.
  7. Serve fresh with your favorite marinara or tomato sauce!
