Equipment
- baking sheet
- parchment paper sheets
- Mixing Bowl
- whisk
Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower cut into florets
- ¾ cup flour
- 1 teaspoon ground paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup buttermilk see note for alternatives
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- ⅓ cup Buffalo Sauce we used Frank's!
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the spices, salt, and the flour. Add the buttermilk and stir until combined. The mixture should be pretty thick!
- Add the cauliflower florets to the batter, coating each piece evenly in the buttermilk mixture. Place the coated cauliflower on the prepared baking pans, leaving room between each piece for air to circulate.
- Bake for 20 minutes, then flip the cauliflower over for even baking. Bake for another 20 minutes.
- While the cauliflower bakes, make the buffalo sauce. Combine the buffalo sauce with the melted butter and whisk to combine.
- When the cauliflower is done, add the florets to the hot sauce mixture. Toss to combine and enjoy!
Notes
If you don’t have buttermilk, make your own with milk and vinegar or lemon juice. For vegan options, substitute buttermilk with plant-based and butter with coconut oil. For gluten-free, use gluten-free flour. Space the cauliflower pieces for crispy results.
