Cauliflower Buffalo Wings

I hope this comprehensive guide has inspired you to make these delicious and crispy Cauliflower Buffalo Wings! They’re a perfect plant-based alternative to traditional wings and a great way to enjoy a flavorful and satisfying snack or appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale

Here’s a complete list of the ingredients you’ll need, with precise measurements:

  • 1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup buffalo sauce
  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter, melted

Instructions

Let’s get cooking! Here’s a detailed, step-by-step guide:

Step 1: Preheat Oven and Prepare Cauliflower

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Cut the head of cauliflower into bite-sized florets.

Step 2: Make Batter

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, water, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until a smooth batter forms. The consistency should be similar to pancake batter.

Step 3: Dip Cauliflower in Batter

Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, making sure it’s evenly coated. Let any excess batter drip off.

Step 4: First Bake

Place the battered cauliflower florets on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.

Bake for 20 minutes, or until the batter is set and the cauliflower is starting to brown.

Step 5: Make Buffalo Sauce

While the cauliflower is baking, prepare the buffalo sauce. In a separate bowl, mix together the buffalo sauce and melted vegan butter.

Step 6: Toss Cauliflower in Sauce

Remove the cauliflower from the oven and carefully toss it in the buffalo sauce mixture until evenly coated.

Step 7: Second Bake

Return the sauce-coated cauliflower to the baking sheet in a single layer.

Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until crispy.

Step 8: Serve

Serve the Cauliflower Buffalo Wings immediately with vegan ranch dressing, celery sticks, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Enjoy this delicious and healthy plant-based alternative to traditional buffalo wings!
