Ingredients

• 1 medium head cauliflower, cut into florets
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
• 1 recipe blue cheese dip

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, water, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to form a smooth batter.
3. Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, ensuring it is evenly coated, then place them spaced out on the prepared baking sheet.
4. Bake the coated cauliflower for 20-25 minutes until crispy and golden brown, checking occasionally to prevent burning.
5. In a separate large bowl, gently toss the baked cauliflower with buffalo sauce until evenly coated.
6. Arrange the buffalo cauliflower bites on a serving platter and serve with blue cheese dip on the side.
