Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400F
  • Cut your cauliflower into small florets
  • Place florets in a bowl
  • Melt coconut oil and butter in a microwave proof dish in the microwave
  • Poor melted oil over cauliflower florets
  • Season with sea salt or other optional toppings (** Except for cheese - add this at the end if using) and mix well
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread seasoned cauliflower florets over baking sheet
  • Cook for 40-50 minutes stirring every 15 minutes or so to ensure cauliflower cooks evenly. You know it's done when cauliflower is golden brown all over
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

NOTE: If you are using a smaller head of cauliflower I would limit your oil to 3 TBSP
Other optional toppings: parmesan cheese, ground cinnamon, curry spice, chill powder, paleo friendly seasoning salt
NOTE: Cooking time will vary depending on altitude and size of cauliflower used
