Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Mashed Cauliflower Bake.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, fill a large pot with water and bring it to a vigorous boil.
Step 3
Once boiling, toss in the cauliflower florets and let them simmer until they reach tender perfection, which should take about 10 minutes.
Step 4
After cooking, drain the florets and set them aside to cool slightly.
Step 5
In the same pot, melt a generous pat of butter over medium heat, then introduce the cooked cauliflower back into the mix along with creamy milk and tangy sour cream.
Step 6
Stir everything together until it’s a harmonious blend.
Step 7
Grab a hand blender and transform the mixture into a velvety mash, ensuring it’s smooth and creamy.
Step 8
Next, transfer this delightful concoction into a baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Step 9
Top it off with a sprinkle of Italian-seasoned bread crumbs, and don’t forget to season with salt and freshly cracked black pepper to your liking.
Step 10
Slide the dish into your preheated oven and let it bake for about 30 minutes, or until the bread crumbs turn a lovely golden brown.
Step 11
Once it’s out of the oven, serve it warm and enjoy the comforting flavors of this delicious dish.
