How to cook deliciously - Air Fryer Cauliflower Buffalo Wings

1. Stage

Break apart the cauliflower Cut the green stems back on the cauliflower head and then break or cut the head into about 1-inch florets. It’s easiest to start near the base of the cauliflower and work your way toward the center.

2. Stage

Dip in egg wash and breadcrumbs In a bowl large enough to hold the florets, whisk together 2 eggs and 1/4 cup of water. Add the florets to the egg mixture. Use a slotted spoon to stir the florets making sure each is well coated. Remove the florets from the egg mixture and add them to the breadcrumbs. Toss them around until they are well coated.

3. Stage

Air fry the breaded cauliflower Spray the air fryer basket with nonstick spray. Place the breaded florets in a single layer in the basket. Try not to crowd them. Set the air fryer to 350 ̊F and fry the cauliflower for 7 minutes. Flip each floret and fry for another 7 minutes. Transfer to a platter. Repeat this process until all the cauliflower have been fried.

4. Stage

Make the buffalo sauce In a small bowl, combine the hot sauce, melted butter, salt, garlic powder and black pepper.

5. Stage

Coat the fried cauliflower Dunk the florets of breaded and fried cauliflower one at time with a light coat of sauce. Return the pieces to the air fryer in a single layer and fry for another 4 minutes. Transfer to a platter. Repeat the frying process with all your florets.

6. Stage

Serve Serve the florets warm with blue cheese sauce, leftover buffalo sauce, and vegetables on the side.
