How To Make broccoli au gratin

• Step 6
  Place the broccoli in a shallow baking dish. Pour cheese sauce over and top with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese and the Panko bread crumbs.
• Step 7
  Bake for 15 minutes at 350°F and broil on low for about 5 minutes until browned on top. Serve immediately.
