Course: Appetizer, Side Dish, Snack
Keyword: crispy, spicy

Ingredients

  • 16 oz package of frozen organic cauliflower florets
  • 2 tablespoons arrowroot starch
  • ⅓ cup almond flour
  • 1 tablespoon garlic granules or powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • large pinch of iodized salt
  • ½ cup no dairy buffalo sauce (I used primal kitchen)

Instructions

  • Remove frozen cauliflower from the freezer and let sit on the counter for 5-10 minutes (this allows the cauliflower to just slightly defrost, allowing the other ingredients to stick to it).
  • Preheat oven to 445 and line a baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper.
  • Add cauliflower to a large mixing bowl and toss with arrowroot starch until coated. Then add almond flour garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss again. Add buffalo sauce and stir together to coat the cauliflower.
  • Pour cauliflower onto the lined baking sheet (make sure pieces aren't touching, this helps the cauliflower bake evenly and prevents large clumps of flour combining while baking).
  • Bake on the middle rack for 30-35 minutes or until cauliflower is golden brown/charred to your liking.
    *optional: at the 15 minute mark, flip cauliflower bites over and bake for another 15 minutes.
  • Remove and enjoy!
    *optional: for extra flavorful and spicy bites, drizzle or toss in extra buffalo sauce.
