Ingredients
Broccoli
- 4 Cups broccoli florets
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
Cheese Fondue Sauce
- 1 teaspoon ghee
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ½ Cup + 1 Tablespoon milk
- ¼ Cup grated pepper gouda
- Pinch salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 1 Tablespoon spelt flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400℉. Place broccoli on baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Toss to coat evenly. Roast 15-20 min until tender and browning on edges. (Note cooking times may vary due to oven differences and broccoli size.)
- While Broccoli is cooking, make cheese sauce. Heat ghee over medium-low until melted, add garlic and cook 1 min. Add milk, salt, and pepper and whisk for 2-3 min. Add cheese and whisk until melted. Add spelt flour and whisk to break up lumps for 1 more min. Turn off heat. Heat lightly when broccoli is done, if needed. (If sauce is too thick when reheating, add a teaspoon or two of milk).
Notes
- If you can’t find pepper gouda, you can sub for regular gouda+ 1/8 tsp crushed red pepper, pepper jack, or pepper cheddar.
- We usually have this as a veggie appetizer, but it also makes a great side with the cheese sauce drizzled over the broccoli.
