Broccoli Gratin image

Made this last night for the first time... I think even people who hate broccoli will love this! So simple, I recommend trying any kind of veggie or cheese combo.

Time 45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large head broccoli, cut into florets
6 tablespoons butter, divided
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups milk
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pinch garlic powder
1 pinch onion powder
2 slices stale bread

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add broccoli, cover, and steam until tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Melt 5 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add flour, stirring constantly to prevent browning. Slowly pour in milk, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in Cheddar cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Drain broccoli and place in a casserole dish. Pour cheese sauce on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, crush bread into crumbs. Saute in a skillet with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter until golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Spread bread crumbs over the broccoli and continue baking until golden brown, about 5 minutes more.
