Roasted Keto Cauliflower Soup
Simply the tastiest Keto Cauliflower Soup by miles! Many low carb cauliflower soup recipes are loaded with cream and whilst they taste nice, I prefer a healthier and lighter version without cream that’s still incredibly flavoursome.

- 1 cauliflower 500g / 1.1 lb of florets
- 4 tablespoon butter melted or olive oil for DF (55g)
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1 small yellow onion wedges (70g)
- 2 celery sticks cut into 1 inch chunks (80g)
- 5 cup chicken or vegetable stock 1.2 litres
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
- ⅓ teaspoon black pepper or to taste
Topping
- ¼ cup grated parmesan 15g
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Preheat the oven to 400F / 200C / 180C fan.
Place the cauliflower florets on a baking tray with the onion wedges, celery and garlic. Toss in 4 tablespoon butter and season.
Roast for 30 minutes until soft, turning once during cooking.
Discard the garlic skins and add everything in the tray to a soup pan, along with the stock. Bring to the boil then reduce to a medium / low simmer and cook for 15 - 20 minutes.
Transfer the soup to a blender and blitz until smooth. You may need to do this in two parts! Option to use a stick blender if you prefer. Using a blender makes it much creamier though without needing to add cream. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
Ladle into bowls and serve with sprinkling of parmesan, a drizzle of olive oil and optional chopped chives.
Serves 4 (makes 5 cups) - 1 ¼ cups per serve
