Air Fryer Buffalo Cauliflower
Crispy and spicy buffalo cauliflower florets, perfect as a snack or appetizer.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 large large cauliflower, chopped into equal-sized florets
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (use gluten-free if needed) Can substitute with gluten-free flour.
- 1 cup milk (such as soy milk)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup hot sauce (e.g., Frank’s Buffalo hot sauce) Any vinegary hot sauce will do.
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
Instructions
Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth.
- Toss cauliflower florets in batter until evenly coated (do not drown them; we want cling, not a bath).
Cooking
- Air fry at 200°C/400°F for 13-15 minutes until crispy and golden.
- While cauliflower cooks, mix hot sauce and melted butter until smooth.
- When cauliflower is done, toss immediately in the sauce so the heat helps glue the buffalo flavor on.
- Serve warm, optionally with celery or blue cheese.
Notes
Do not overcrowd the basket. Flip halfway if you remember. For extra crispiness, air fry for an additional 2 minutes.
