Ingredients
Vegetables
- 1 medium cauliflower
Dairy & Eggs
- 3 eggs
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ cup cheese (such as cheddar, grated)
Other
- Pinch of salt
- Light oil for greasing the baking dish
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the cauliflower cheese pie.
- Cook cauliflower: Divide the cauliflower into florets and place them in a pot filled with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes to soften. For a slightly crisper texture, cook for 3 minutes instead.
- Prepare egg mixture: While the cauliflower cooks, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt. Add the sour cream to the beaten eggs and mix thoroughly until well combined.
- Drain and arrange cauliflower: Drain the cooked cauliflower and place it evenly in a lightly oiled baking dish to prevent sticking.
- Add egg and cheese topping: Pour the egg and sour cream mixture evenly over the cauliflower. Then sprinkle the grated cheese evenly on top.
- Bake the pie: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the top is golden brown and set.
- Serve: Once baked, serve your cauliflower cheese pie warm, optionally with extra sour cream or your favorite sauce for added flavor.
Notes
- Use a full-fat sour cream for best creaminess and keto compliance.
- You can substitute cheddar cheese with any sharp cheese of your choice.
- To make the dish more flavorful, consider adding herbs such as thyme or chives.
- Let the pie cool slightly before cutting to allow it to set properly.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven or microwave.
