Ingredients

1 large head of cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets

½ cup all-purpose flour

½ cup water

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust for heat)

Salt and pepper to taste

½ cup buffalo sauce (store-bought or homemade)

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, water, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper until smooth.

Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss until they are well coated in the batter.

Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray or brush with a little olive oil.

Place the coated cauliflower florets in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to work in batches to avoid overcrowding.

Air fry for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking, until the cauliflower is golden and crispy.

While the florets are cooking, combine the buffalo sauce and olive oil in a large bowl.

Once the cauliflower is done, transfer it to the bowl with the buffalo sauce mixture, and toss gently until each piece is coated evenly.

Return the coated cauliflower to the air fryer and cook for an additional 5 minutes to crisp up the buffalo coating.

Remove from the air fryer, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve immediately.
