How To Make Keto Cauliflower Soup (Roasted)
To make this keto roasted cauliflower soup, we first toss the cauliflower in olive oil and sea salt. Then, on a lined baking sheet, we roast the cauliflower, unpeeled garlic cloves, and onions.
Sure, this takes extra time, but it’s totally worth it for adding an extra layer of flavor to the soup.
After the veggies are roasted, add the cauliflower, onions, chicken broth, heavy cream, and spices to a stockpot.
When the unpeeled roasted garlic is cool enough to touch, squeeze the softened garlic into the pot. Allow the soup to simmer for 20-25 minutes.
Next, you’ll add the soup to your blender, but after waiting about 10 minutes for it to cool slightly. You’ll have to blend the soup in batches because you don’t want to overfill the blender.
I’ve included detailed instructions and warnings on safely blending your hot soup in the blender under the notes in the recipe card below.
Once the soup is smooth and fully blended, return it to the stove and warm it over medium heat, adding the butter.
You could use an immersion blender or food processor. My favorite way to blend hot liquids in a creamy soup is with a regular blender.
That’s all; your soup is ready to be served with a garnish of roasted cauliflower florets, chopped parsley, a drizzle of olive oil, and red pepper flakes (if you like a little heat).
Some crumbled bacon would also be a great addition!

Notes
How To Safely Puree Hot Soup in Blender
It's important to allow the soup to cool for a few minutes before blending. This can take anywhere before 5-10 minutes. Before adding the soup to the blender be sure to remove the center cap from the lid of your blender. Before blending, place a folded kitchen towel over the top of the blender. Hold the towel in place with your hand, this is key so that you do not risk getting burned. The towel will allow the steam to escape safely. Be sure to only fill the blender halfway, and to blend the soup in batches. Once the soup is fully blended return to the pan to heat through before serving.
