Creamy Cauliflower and Broccoli Puree - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Absolutely! For a dairy-free version, simply replace the cream with an equal amount of unsweetened almond milk, oat milk, or canned coconut milk. The coconut milk will add a slight sweetness, which can be a delicious variation.

Yes, this puree freezes very well. Portion it into freezer-safe bags or containers, leaving some room for expansion. It will keep for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating gently on the stove.
