Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Frank's RedHot sauce
- 1 as needed olive oil spray
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Break the cauliflower into bite-sized florets and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and ground black pepper.
In another bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.
Dip each cauliflower floret into the beaten eggs, letting excess drip off, then coat in the almond flour mixture. Place each coated floret on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly spray the coated cauliflower with olive oil spray to help them crisp up.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, turning once halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
While the cauliflower is baking, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in the Frank's RedHot sauce until fully combined. Remove from heat.
Once the cauliflower bites are done baking, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over the top and gently toss to evenly coat all the bites.
Return the coated cauliflower bites to the baking sheet and bake for an additional 5 minutes to set the sauce.
Serve hot, with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce if desired.
