Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large head of cauliflower, all outer leaved removed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. Place your cauliflower with the stem facing upwards and the florets downwards on a large cutting board.
  3. Using a sharp knife cut off a thin slice from either end to create a flat surface. Then slice your cauliflower into 3/4 inch thick “steaks” that are flat on both sides. You’ll get 4 steaks for a big head of cauliflower. Some florets will break off and you’ll have the leftovers from the ends but otherwise you should have 4 intact cauliflower steaks.
  4. In a small bowl combine olive oil and spices and mix well.
  5. Brush your cauliflower steaks with the marinade making sure that both sides are well coated and place steaks on a baking sheet. There will be a bit of leftover marinade. Set that aside.
  6. Place cauliflower steaks in the oven to bake for 15 minutes.
  7. Remove from oven and flip carefully. Brush any remaining marinade onto steaks.
  8. Bake for another 15-20 minutes or until cauliflower steaks are crisp and lightly browned.
