Equipment

  • air fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 24 oz cauliflower, chopped into small florets (2.5 lb, approx. 4 cups)
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup water
  • ¼ cup buffalo-style wing sauce
  • chopped chives or parsley for garnish, optional

Instructions
 

  • Cut cauliflower into small florets and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, water, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Then add in the cauliflower and stir to coat all the florets in the mixture.
  • Add as much cauliflower that can fit to an air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook at 400 F for 5 minutes, shake the basket around, and cook for another 5 minutes. While the cauliflower is cooking, rinse out the large bowl, then pour the buffalo sauce into it.
  • Add cauliflower to the bowl and toss with the buffalo sauce. Return the cauliflower to the air fryer and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes or until the cauliflower is crispy.
  • Serve immediately with carrots, celery, and your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!
