Spicy Roasted Cauliflower & Mushroom Toasts

Some days just call for a simple, but yummy toast. Know what I mean?

perfect bite for an earthy and umami burst of flavor in your mouth

Lately, I’ve been into simple recipes with maximum flavor and these spicy roasted cauliflower & mushroom toasts are just that. As the days are starting to get warmer, I’m all about spending less time in the kitchen and more time outside so I love making these toasts.

So why are these roasted cauliflower & mushroom toasts so delicious? Well besides both cauliflower and mushrooms already having an earthy/umami flavor; the spice profile in this recipe is ras el hanout! Ras el hanout also has an earthy flavor profile that’s woody and pungent but also has a hint of sweetness thanks to cinnamon and nutmeg. When you combine this with the cauliflower and mushroom it’s an explosion of flavor in your mouth. I honestly can’t stop making or eating these toasts.

This recipe is so easy! All you need to do is break up your cauliflower into pieces and slice your mushrooms. Drizzle olive oil over them and toss, then season with salt and pepper. Then you’re going to season them with the ras el hanout, massaging the spice into the veggies. I like to use a lot of this spice so I go in with about a tablespoon.

To roast the cauliflower and mushrooms I used de Buyer’s perforated aluminum baking sheet. This is the perfect baking sheet to use to battle against soggy, and soft baked goods! Both the mushrooms and cauliflower roasted perfectly on this pan; crisp but not too dried out.

The pan features high-quality aluminum construction and micro-perforations to deliver an even heat dispersion so it’s perfect for baking pizzas, cookies, tarts, fries, etc. So far I’ve even used this pan to roast a whole branzino and it came out amazing! You can also use silicone or perforated mats in accompaniment with this baking mat. Head to de Buyer to grab one of these pans for yourself!
