Easy Air fryer Buffalo Cauliflower wings recipe below
I’m talking about tender cauliflower florets, perfectly air-fried to achieve that ideal crispy texture. Then comes the magic – tossing them in a luscious buffalo sauce and air fried again, creating a symphony of flavours and sensations. But wait, there’s a delightful bonus: imagine dipping these delectable bites into my quick and tasty 5-minute Boom Boom sauce, for an extra burst of flavour. What’s even better? You can snack on these guilt-free goodies anytime. Plus these are suitable for those on Vegan and Gluten free diet. Even my friends who typically enjoy meat have wholeheartedly endorsed these zesty cauliflower bites, asserting that they’re on par with classic buffalo chicken wings in terms of taste. Plus, being crafted from cauliflower, they provide an excellent plant-based alternative for those seeking a delectable snack without meat. The process is a breeze: just blend these three ingredients together, and voilà – you have a delicious sauce that will take your buffalo cauliflower experience to a whole new level. In case you can’t find Franks Hot Sauce, don’t fret. Any hot sauce brand from your local supermarket will do. Going vegan? No problem. This recipe uses maple syrup instead of honey. And for those who crave a buttery glaze, a simple swap of melted butter for the olive oil will give you that dreamy texture you desire. Coat the Cauliflower in the Flour Slurry: Take each cauliflower floret and dip it individually into the batter mix. Gently shake off any excess batter, and then arrange the coated florets on parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Air Fry the Buffalo Cauliflower Bites: Start by preheating the air fryer to 350°F (180°C) for 4 minutes. Once it’s ready, arrange the cauliflower florets in the air fryer basket in a single, evenly spaced layer. Let them air fry for about 10-15 minutes, remembering to flip the florets halfway through for uniform cooking. Be sure to place them in the basket without overlapping. Brush with buffalo glaze and air fry: Brush the air-fried cauliflower florets generously with the Buffalo Wings sauce. Return these sauced florets to the air fryer, and cook for another 10 minutes or until they reach the desired level of crispiness. Serve Immediately: Once your Crispy Healthy Buffalo Cauliflower Wings have achieved their irresistible texture, serve them promptly. Get ready to relish these delectable bites!
Wraps: Serve the buffalo cauliflower wings in a wrap with some lettuce, tomatoes, and avocado to create a satisfying and healthy meal. Sour cream and chives dip, Ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, boom boom sauce, Vegan burger sauce Sweet potato fries or Air fryer chunky chips No mayo Coleslaw
In the Freezer: For extended freshness, freeze buffalo wings in a freezer-safe bag for up to 1-2 months. Defrost in the fridge or microwave, then reheat in the air fryer.
Can I freeze cauliflower wings?
Yes, you can freeze cauliflower wings. Store in air tight container or freezer safe bags in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to eat them, thaw them in the fridge overnight and then reheat them in the air fryer until crispy. Keep in mind that the texture may change slightly after being frozen and may not turn as crispy as originally made. But they should still be delicious.
Is cooking with Air fryer healthy for you?
Air fryers use hot air to cook food, resulting in a crunchy texture with minimal or no oil. This makes air fried food a healthier alternative to deep-fried food, with fewer calories and less fat. It can be a helpful tool for those watching their weight or working towards weight loss.
