Description

These Air Fryer Buffalo Cauliflower Bites are a crispy, spicy, and guilt-free snack perfect for game day.


Ingredients

  • ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¾ cup water
  • 1 head cauliflower, broken into large florets
  • Buffalo sauce, for brushing
  • Vegan ranch, for dipping (optional)


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and salt. Add the water and whisk until smooth.
  2. Add the cauliflower florets to the batter and stir to coat evenly.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the battered cauliflower in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving a little space around each piece. Air fry for 9 minutes. Remove from the air fryer and use a spatula to carefully flip the florets. Brush with some of the buffalo sauce. Air fry for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the cauliflower is dark and crisp around the edges.
  4. Remove from the air fryer and brush with additional buffalo sauce. Serve with vegan ranch for dipping, if desired.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Experiment with different spices in the batter to adjust the heat level.
