Ingredients

3 cups cut green beans

Cream of Mushroom

8 oz sliced mushrooms
4 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 cup chicken stock or broth
1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream)
2 ounce full fat cream cheese
salt and pepper to taste
1/8 teaspoon xanthan gum (may need more)

Onion Topping

1/2 sliced onion
1/2 cup almond flour
2 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Prep

Use fresh string beans only. Fresh in the bag is fine but not frozen or canned. Slice them in half so they aren't too long.
Steam string beans for 5-8 minutes until they haven't softened a little with a slight crunch. Set aside.
Cut and slice the mushrooms finely. Slice 1/2 onion thinly for topping then set aside.
Preheat oven to 400°F

Cream of Mushroom

In a pot on high heat add in mushrooms. They will release water and continue to cook until all the water has evaporated. Once water has evaporated lower the heat to medium high. Then grate the garlic cloves over the mushrooms and cook until fragrant and golden.
Lower the heat to medium and add in cream cheese and mix into mushrooms and garlic. Pour in heavy cream and chicken broth.
Do not let it come to full boil, allow it to steam but if it starts to simmer too much lower the heat a little. Continue to let it simmer about 10 minutes.
Combine xanthan gum, salt and black pepper together. Then, sprinkle over the cream of mushroom and quickly whisk it for a minute or two. Remove from heat and set aside.

Make The Casserole

Add steamed string beans into casserole dish then top with cream of mushroom sauce you made.
In a seperate bowl mix salt and pepper into almond flour. Then toss almond flour and onions together. Most of the flour won't stick until the next step.
Melt 2 TB of butter and pour over mixed almond flour and onions. Mix enough to where everything is coated and somewhat sticking together.
Spread this across the casserole then place in preheated over for 30-40 minutes or until top turns golden brown. Allow to cool then serve.
