Simple Ingredients for Broccoli Cauliflower Casserole

  • Broccoli and Cauliflower | Fresh cauliflower and fresh broccoli florets bring the dish a crisp and tender texture. Fresh is best!
  • Oil | Use olive oil to saute the onions and garlic.
  • Onion and garlic | Add flavor to the sauce with chopped onion and minced or pressed fresh garlic. Replace the garlic if desired, with garlic powder.
  • Flour | Thicken the sauce with classic all-purpose flour, giving a base for all the delicious flavor. Gluten-free flour may also be used. 
  • Half and half | Make a creamy cheese sauce with half and half.
  • Cheese | Melt down a combination of shredded Swiss cheese and white cheddar and sprinkle in some freshly grated parmesan cheese. I prefer shredding and grating the cheese from the block for a more authentic taste. Sharp cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack are another excellent option.
  • Nutmeg | Boost the flavor with ground nutmeg, adding nuttle and subtly sweet notes. Don’t skip this, it brings out the flavors!
  • Salt and pepper | Sprinkle in some kosher salt and black pepper to taste.
  • Panko topping | Combine melted butter and panko bread crumbs for a crunchy buttery casserole topping. Omit for gluten-free or use gluten-free panko.

How to Make Easy Broccoli Cauliflower Gratin

Step 1 | Preheat and prep

Start by preheating the oven to 375° F (190° C)  and lightly coating a baking dish with oil or butter. Meanwhile, bring a couple of inches of water to a large pot with a steamer basket and boil.

Recommended Tool

  • Vegetable Steamer, this is a good sturdy steamer!

Step 2 | Steam the veggies

Next, rinse and cut the broccoli and cauliflower into smaller bite-size florets, then place broccoli and cauliflower florets in the basket in the pot, cover, and simmer until they are crisp tender, for about 3-4 minutes. Remove the basket and allow it to drain.

Steam the broccoli and cauliflower.

Fresh Tips

  • For the best results, buy the blocks of white cheddar, Swiss, and parmesan cheese and grate them yourself, avoiding the pre-shredded cheese additives that prevent it from melting well.
  • Be careful not to overcook the veggies when steaming because they will continue to cook in the oven. No one wants mushy casserole.

Step 3 | Make the au gratin sauce

Now, heat a medium saucepan or a large skillet to medium heat, heat the oil, then add the onions and saute until they are translucent, taking around five minutes. Next, add the garlic and cook for less than a minute until it is fragrant. 

Add the flour and stir until the mixture is golden and thick to make a roux. From here, slowly add the half and half, continuously stirring until the sauce thickens.

Finally, lower the heat and stir the cheese in small batches until it has melted into the sauce ingredients—season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper.

Step 4 | Assemble, bake, and serve!

If there’s enough room in the pot, add the steamed broccoli and cauliflower to the sauce and stir gently to coat. Or place drained vegetables in a large bowl, pour the cheese sauce over the top, gently toss to coat.

Then, pour the veggie mixture into the prepared baking dish and move on to the buttery panko topping.

Step 5 | Panko Topping (optional)

In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, breadcrumbs, and two tablespoons of parmesan cheese, sprinkling over the top of the casserole.

Slip the dish into the oven and bake for 25 minutes. Once the casserole is golden brown on top, the dish is ready! Serve piping hot and fresh out of the oven!

Fresh Tips

  • Broccoli and cauliflower can be a little bland, so a great way to boost the flavor is to add seasonings and taste as you go.
  • If desired, garnish with sliced green onions and freshly grated parmesan cheese.

Or serve a convenient casserole as the main dish with this Cheesy Hamburger and Tater Tot Casserole or Chicken and Wild Rice Casserole (use your leftover Thanksgiving turkey!)

Variations

If preferred, you can use roasted broccoli and cauliflower too. Roast and then toss in the cheese sauce and bake as directed.

Gluten-Free Broccoli and Cauliflower Casserole

Use a gluten-free brand of panko breadcrumbs and a gluten-free flour alternative in your sauce to make the dish gluten-free. Furthermore, use blocks of cheese rather than pre-shredded packs with additives that often contain gluten. That is it!

Keto Diet Adjustments for Broccoli and Cauliflower Bake

Substitute almond or coconut flour for the wheat flour to make the dish low carb. Skip the panko breadcrumbs altogether, or toss some pork rind crumbs with melted butter and sprinkle on top.

Add Protein to Make it a Main Dish

Add cooked chicken breast, turkey, rotisserie chicken, diced ham, or bacon to the sauce with the vegetables to make this a main dish. Leftover turkey from the holidays works, too!

Vegan Vegetable Au Gratin

All you need to do for a vegan or dairy-free version is replace the cheese, cream, and butter with your favorite plant-based products.

Substitutions

  • Half and Half – Heavy cream, Whole milk, 2%, or skim milk can be substituted for half and half. Other than heavy cream, this may make the dish less creamy and rich. 
  • Additional Vegetables – Add vegetables like sliced carrots, brussels sprouts, asparagus, or peas for added flavor, nutrients, and pops of color. 
  • Seasoning – Play with various herbs and seasonings, like thyme, rosemary, and paprika, to add depth of flavor.
  • Panko – Top your casserole with traditional breadcrumbs, crushed crackers, or crushed potato chips to add a crunchy texture without panko. Or add crunchy french-fried onions to the topping for a classic and delicious twist!
  • Nuts – Sprinkle in chopped nuts like almonds or pecans for extra crunch.
  • Loaded Cauliflower Broccoli Casserole – Add cream cheese or sour cream for extra thickness and cheesy goodness.
  • Ritz Crackers – Trade out the panko topping for crushed Ritz crackers for a buttery good alternative the whole family will love.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes something au gratin?

Dishes topped with cheese and breadcrumbs and baked in the oven are considered au gratin. Like this amazing Potatoes dauphinoise (au gratin).

Can you use frozen broccoli and cauliflower for this casserole?

Yes, you can use frozen broccoli and cauliflower. However, fresh veggies give the dish a crisper texture, while frozen ones will be much softer. So, you may want to take some time off the steaming process and pat the thawed vegetables dry to remove the excess moisture before adding them to the recipe.

Can you make broccoli cauliflower casserole ahead of time?

Sure! Most casseroles are ideal for making ahead. First, steam the veggies and make the sauce, but keep the two separate until you’re ready to bake the recipe. The two components can be held in the fridge until the next day before they lose flavor and texture.
Before baking, set the ingredients on the countertop to room temperature, then combine, make the topping, and bake as directed.
If you want to make it a week or more ahead, follow the recipe as instructed, but stop when adding the topping. Keep the topping in a separate ziplock bag. Then, remove the dish from the freezer when ready to bake, allow it to thaw, add the topping and bake.

What can I serve with broccoli cauliflower casserole?

Cauliflower and broccoli casserole is versatile and goes well with various dishes. It’s the perfect side dish for main dishes such as grilled chicken, turkey legs, baked fish, and more. 

Storage Tips

Fridge – Save leftovers for 3-4 days by storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Freeze – You can freeze this casserole in a zipped freezer bag or airtight container for up to 3 months.

How to reheat broccoli and cauliflower casserole

Reheat from the fridge by placing the recipe in an oven-safe dish and heating it at 350° F (175° C) until warm. First, let the recipe thaw in the fridge overnight, then bake it as directed, possibly cooking it for a little longer if the ingredients are extra chilly.

From Frozen: Make sure your dish can go from freezer to oven, remove from freezer while preheating the oven. Sprinkle on panko breadcrumbs, then cover with oil-sprayed aluminum foil and bake 10-15 minutes longer than directions until hot and bubbly, removing the foil the last 15 minutes.

Notes

Buy the blocks of white cheddar, Swiss, and parmesan cheese and grate yourself. Pre-shredded contains additives, and it doesn’t melt as nicely.
● Fresh broccoli and cauliflower will give the best texture in this dish.
● Whole milk can be substituted for half and half. You can also use 2% or skim milk, but it will be less creamy and rich.
● Don’t overcook the veggies when steaming; they will cook more in the oven. Overcooking will result in mushy vegetables.
● Add cooked chicken breast to the sauce with the vegetables to make this a main dish.
● Broccoli and cauliflower can be bland vegetables; taste and add more seasoning if necessary.
Gluten-Free Broccoli and Cauliflower Casserole | Use a gluten-free brand of panko breadcrumbs and a gluten-free flour alternative in your sauce to make the dish gluten-free. Grate your own cheese, as pre-shredded packs have additives that often contain gluten. That is it!
Low-Carb Broccoli and Cauliflower Bake | Substitute almond or coconut flour for the flour to make the dish low-carb. Skip the panko breadcrumbs, or toss some pork rind crumbs with melted butter and sprinkle on top.
Add Protein | Add cooked chicken breast, turkey, rotisserie chicken, diced ham, or bacon to the sauce with the vegetables to make this a main dish. Leftover turkey from the holidays works, too!
Vegan Vegetable Au Gratin | All you need to do for a vegan or dairy-free version is replace the cheese, cream, and butter with your favorite plant-based products.
