Instructions
- 1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- 2. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large pot over medium heat. When the oil shimmers, add the onion and carrot and cook until fragrant, about 10 minutes. Whisk in the flour and cook until golden, about 1 minute, then gradually whisk in the broth until smooth. Add the broccoli, bay leaves, nutmeg, cayenne, and a large pinch each of salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium and cook, uncovered, until the broccoli is tender, about 10 minutes.
- 3. Remove the bay leaves and discard. Stir in the milk and cheese until melted and creamy. Add the thyme and cook another 10 minutes or until the mixture has thickened. Remove from the heat and transfer the mix to a medium size casserole dish.
- 4. Make the biscuits. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, parmesan, and pepper. Add the butter and toss with the flour. Add the buttermilk, and mix until just combined, adding more buttermilk if needed.

Transfer to the oven and bake until the broccoli is bubbling and the biscuits are golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Top with fresh thyme and enjoy!
