Directions Creamy Broccoli and Cheese Casserole
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x12-inch baking dish.
Place broccoli and onion into a saucepan, pour in water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until broccoli turns bright green and starts to become tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
Whisk flour and 1/4 cup evaporated milk together in a bowl until smooth. Stir remaining evaporated milk and salt into broccoli. Gently stir flour mixture into broccoli mixture and bring to a simmer, cook until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in sharp Cheddar cheese, mixing until cheese has melted into the sauce.
Cook and stir bread crumbs with butter in a small skillet over medium heat until butter has melted and crumbs begin to give a toasted fragrance, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
Transfer broccoli mixture into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle crumbs atop casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and browned, about 30 minutes.
