👨‍🍳 Instructions

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 cauliflower, cover, and steam until tender, 5 to 7 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.

Heat butter in a small saucepan over low heat; cook and stir onion in the melted butter until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add flour; cook, stirring constantly, until mixture just starts to brown, 3 to 5 minutes.

Gradually pour milk into mixture, whisking into a smooth sauce.

Cook until just simmering.

Remove sauce from heat and stir in half the Cheddar cheese until melted; sprinkle with pepper and nutmeg.

Place steamed cauliflower in the prepared baking dish; pour cheese sauce over cauliflower.
