| 1 | Prepare Cauliflower: Begin by steaming the cauliflower florets for about 10 minutes, or until they are tender. |
| 2 | Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease a shallow baking pan lightly to prevent sticking. |

| 6 | Top with Breadcrumbs: Sprinkle breadcrumbs evenly over the cheese-covered cauliflower. This will add a delightful crunch to the bake. |
| 7 | Bake: Transfer the baking pan to the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the breadcrumbs are golden brown. |
| 8 | Serve: Once baked to perfection, remove the cauliflower cheese bake from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy this comforting dish as a main course or a delectable side. |
