Crispy Vegan Buffalo Cauliflower Bites
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup brown rice flour
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 head cauliflower, cut into 2-inch florets
- 1/3 cup Frank’s hot sauce or barbecue sauce
Preparation
Preheat oven to 450°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Combine the brown rice flour, almond flour, tomato paste, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried parsley, and 2/3 cup of water in a blender. Puree until the batter is smooth and thick. Transfer to a bowl and add the cauliflower florets; toss until the florets are well coated with the batter.
Arrange the cauliflower in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, making sure that the florets do not touch one another. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until crisp on the edges.
Remove from the heat and let stand for 3 minutes to crisp up a bit more. Transfer to a bowl and drizzle with the sauce. Serve immediately.
Notes
These oil-free bites can be sauced with hot sauce or barbecue sauce and are great for parties or gatherings.
