Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large head Cauliflower
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup BBQ sauce
- Olive oil spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the cauliflower head into bite-sized florets, approximately the size of traditional wings.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, water, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a smooth batter.
Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, ensuring they are evenly coated, then place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly spray the battered cauliflower with olive oil spray to help them crisp up.
Bake the battered cauliflower in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Remove the cauliflower from the oven and gently coat them with the BBQ sauce using a brush or toss them in a bowl with the sauce.
Return the BBQ-coated cauliflower to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your vegetarian BBQ wings!
