Ingredients

  • 1 large head Cauliflower florets
  • 1/2 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1/2 cup Plant-based milk (unsweetened)
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo wing sauce (dairy-free)
  • 2 tablespoons Vegan butter (melted)

Instructions

  1. 1Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. 2In a large bowl, combine the 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. 3Gradually whisk the 1/2 cup plant-based milk into the dry ingredients until a smooth batter forms.
  4. 4Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, making sure it is completely covered. Place the battered florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. 5Bake the cauliflower florets in the preheated oven at 450°F (232°C) for 20-25 minutes. After 10-12 minutes (halfway through the baking time), carefully flip each floret. Continue baking until the cauliflower is golden brown and crispy.
  6. 6While the cauliflower is baking, in a separate medium bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce and the 2 tablespoons melted vegan butter until well combined.
  7. 7Once the cauliflower florets are cooked, immediately transfer them to the bowl with the buffalo sauce mixture. Toss gently until all the florets are evenly coated with the sauce.
  8. 8Serve the Spicy Dairy-Free Buffalo Cauliflower Bites immediately.
