Preheat the oven to 450Β°F (232Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the cauliflower head into bite-sized florets.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond milk, all-purpose flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper, and whisk until smooth.
Dip the cauliflower florets into the batter, ensuring they are completely coated, then shake off any excess.
Arrange the coated cauliflower on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not touching each other.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, until they start to become golden.
In a small bowl, mix the buffalo sauce and olive oil.
Remove the cauliflower from the oven and brush each floret generously with the buffalo sauce mixture.
Return the cauliflower to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes, until they are crispy and deeply golden.
Allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Dairy-Free Buffalo Cauliflower with your favorite dipping sauce!
