Buffalo Cauliflower Wings

One of my favorite game day appetizers! A healthy twist on buffalo wings that everyone will love.

Ingredients:

-1 head of cauliflower

Breading:

-1 cup almond flour

-1 egg

-1 teaspoon of each: garlic powder, onion powder, paprika

-salt and pepper

-panko crumbs

Sauce:

-buffalo sauce of your choice (Frank’s or Pete’s or my favorite)

-1/4 cup melted butter

-more garlic and onion, salt and pepper

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 375 F.

• Rinse cauliflower head. Cut into pieces- try to follow where cauliflower branches apart because it keeps the ‘wing’ together more.

• Mix all ingredients of the breading except the panko crumbs. Keep those in a separate bowl on the side. If the breading is too thick add a little water to thin it out.

• Line baking tray with foil and grease the sheet. These stick very easily so make sure to grease well!

• Create line-up: cauliflower, breading, panko, and use a wire rack to allow excess batter to drip off (I put parchment paper under to catch the drips for easy cleaning).

• Dip each cauliflower into the breading and tap extra breading off. Just a light coat is perfect (if there is too much breading it doesn’t get crispy!). Then immediately dip into the panko crumbs and coat all sides. Lay onto greased sheet.

• Bake for 10 minutes and flip the cauliflower. Bake additional 10 minutes.

• While baking, mix the ingredients of the sauce.

• After both sides have cooked, coat the cauliflower in the sauce. You can gently pour them into the sauce bowl and mix them to coat well.

• Put cauliflower back onto baking sheet and bake 10 more minutes.

• Let cool and enjoy!
