1

Preheat oven to 375°F.

2

In a large pot over medium heat, heat olive oil and butter. Once hot, add onion and carrot and cook until soft, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.

3

Stir in flour and cook about 1 minute. Gradually stir in broth.

4

Add broccoli, bay leaf, paprika, nutmeg, and thyme, and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook until broccoli is tender, about 10 minutes.

5

Discard bay leaves, then stir in milk and cheese until cheese has melted. Continue cooking until mixture has thickened, if needed. (About 10 minutes.)

6

Transfer to a 9x13-inch baking dish.

7

To make the biscuits, combine flour, baking powder, parmesan cheese, and salt in a large bowl. Add the grated butter and toss together.

8

Add buttermilk, mix until just combined, then add more buttermilk if needed.

9

Turn dough out onto a clean surface and roll into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Cut into 6 biscuits.

10

Place biscuits on top of broccoli cheddar mixture, then brush each with buttermilk.

11

Bake until bubbly and biscuits are golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Enjoy!
