Keto Cauliflower Crockpot Mac and Cheese Recipe

Print Recipe

This easy keto crockpot mac and cheese skips the pasta and loads up on cauliflower, cheddar, cream, and flavor. It’s creamy, cheesy, and low-carb, perfect for the keto diet or anyone craving a comfort meal.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 large head cauliflower, chopped into small pieces (5–6 cups)

  • 1½ cups heavy cream

  • ½ cup cream cheese (room temperature)

  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (divided)

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (divided)

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

  • Optional: ½ teaspoon smoked paprika or chili powder

  • Optional toppings: crispy bacon, pork rinds

Instructions

  • Chop cauliflower into small, bite-sized pieces and place in crockpot.

  • In a bowl, mix heavy cream, cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Pour over cauliflower.

  • Stir in half of the shredded cheddar and mozzarella.

  • Cover and cook on LOW for 2.5–3 hours or HIGH for 1.5 hours.

  • Stir gently. Add remaining cheese on top. Cover and let melt for 10–15 minutes.

  • Serve warm. Add bacon or pork rind topping if desired.

Notes

  • Don’t cut the cauliflower too small or it’ll turn to mush.

  • Use block cheese if you can—pre-shredded melts weird.

  • For spice, toss in jalapeños or a splash of hot sauce.

  • Reheat with a splash of cream to bring back the creamy texture.
