Last year when air fryers became a big thing, I was really unsure about getting one. However, Santa brought my roommate one, and I would now like to recommend that all of you go get one immediately. Everything is crisp and it only takes like five seconds to get it that way. And there’s virtually no cleanup. Win win win win win.

After making this I’m pretty sure I could eat buffalo cauliflower as a side dish or even as the main meal, and also maybe every day of the week.

Ingredients:

  • 1 head of cauliflower
  • 3/4 C Franks Buffalo sauce
  • 1/4 C flour (any kind of flour you choose, and can also be optional)
  • 1/2 tbsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tbsp salt
  • 1/2 tbsp garlic powder

Now you make it:

  1. Preheat air fryer to 350
  2. Cut cauliflower into bite size florets and put into a mixing bowl
  3. Pour buffalo sauce over and mix well
  4. Mix spices and flour (if you choose to use it) and mix into cauliflower and sauce
  5. Put half of cauliflower into air fryer (make sure you really use half or else you’ll overcrowd it and they won’t cook through and be crisp) and cook for 15 minutes, pausing halfway to shake them around so they don’t get stuck and can evenly crisp
  6. Repeat with second half of cauliflower
  7. Eat the first half of buffalo cauliflower straight out of the bowl before the second half is even finished

I imagine these would be great dipped in ranch as well, but I never made it that far with them 🙂

Enjoy!
