PREPARATION

  • 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  • 2

    Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Pat them dry with a paper towel and toss with olive oil, a pinch of salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of garlic powder.

  • 3

    Spread the chickpeas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until they are crispy. Stir halfway through for even crisping.

  • 4

    While the chickpeas roast, cut the cauliflower into florets and steam or boil until tender, about 8-10 minutes.

  • 5

    Once the cauliflower is soft, transfer it to a blender along with unsweetened almond milk, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth to create a creamy sauce.

  • 6

    Combine the cauliflower sauce with the roasted chickpeas gently. If desired, you can transfer the mixture back into the baking dish and warm in the oven for 5 minutes to meld the flavors.

  • 7

    Serve warm and enjoy your comforting bowl of baked cauliflower mac with a delightful crispy chickpea topping.
