Equipment

  • Cast Iron Braiser or Oven Safe Sauce Pan

Ingredients
  

Biscuit Topping

  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 2 tbsp milk (I use almond milk)
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • + 1 tbsp melted butter with dried rosemary & thyme (to brush on the biscuits, optional)

Broccoli Cheddar Casserole

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 sweet onion, chopped
  • 4 cups broccoli florets, chopped
  • 2 cups shredded carrots
  • 3 garlic cloves, diced
  • 2 cups chicken broth (can sub veggie broth)
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 2 tsp dried thyme
  • 2 tsp dried rosemary
  • 3 cups shredded cheese (I use a block of raw/organic/grass fed sharp white cheddar)
  • 2 tbsp tapioca flour/starch or arrow root
  • ¼ cup water

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the biscuit topping by combining all of the ingredients together in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  • Shred your cheese. Set aside.
  • Prepare/chop your veggies, then add them a cast iron braiser or oven safe sauce pan and sauté until fragrant.
  • Add in the filling ingredients aside from the cheese, the tapioca starch/flour and the water. That will be used to thicken the filling later.
  • Turn the stove heat up slightly to bring the filling to a simmer for a few minutes.
  • Mix together the water and tapioca starch/flour to form a paste. Slowly pour this into the skillet in three separate portions, mixing frequently as you go. This will thicken the filling.
  • Stir in the cheese until fully incorporated. Be sure your veggies are soft, then turn off the stove heat.
  • Using your hands, separate the biscuit dough into 7-8 balls. Flatten each ball into a disc and space out on top of the casserole.
  • Top the biscuits with melted butter and dried herbs mixture (optional).
  • Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes.
  • Serve warm and enjoy! You can store leftovers covered in the fridge then reheat in the microwave.
