  • Yield: 4 1x

Description

A delicious, plant-based twist on traditional buffalo wings! These crispy cauliflower florets, coated in a savory batter and tossed in tangy buffalo sauce, deliver all the flavor without the meat.

 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium head of cauliflower (about 4 cups florets)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 1 cup plain breadcrumbs (panko preferred)
  • ½ cup buffalo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Heat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease them.
  • Prepare Cauliflower: Wash and dry the cauliflower, then cut it into bite-sized florets. Set aside.
  • Make Batter: In a bowl, whisk together 1 cup of flour and 1 cup of cold water until smooth.
  • Coat Cauliflower: Dip each cauliflower floret in the batter, then roll in breadcrumbs until evenly coated. Arrange the coated florets on the baking sheet.
  • Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  • Toss in Buffalo Sauce: In a separate bowl, toss the baked cauliflower with buffalo sauce until fully coated. Serve immediately with celery sticks and ranch dressing if desired.

Notes

  • Adjust the buffalo sauce to suit your spice level.
  • You can use any cooking oil for roasting if you don’t have olive oil.
  • For extra crunch, use panko breadcrumbs.
