Buffalo Cauliflower
(adapted from: https://bit.ly/3P5VMWT)
Ingredients:
1 small head cauliflower
2 eggs, whisked
1 cup blanched Almond Flour
1/2 cup Buffalo Sauce (I use Primal Kitchen or Franks Red Hot)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp pepper
For the ranch sauce:
1/2 cup cashews (soaked for 4+ hrs) + 1 lemon + 1 garlic clove + 1/3 cup water + 2 tbsp unsweetened coconut milk + 2 tbsp fresh dill + sea salt & pepper
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
Cut the cauliflower into pieces.
Prepare the dipping mixture by putting 2 eggs in a bowl and the almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt & pepper in another bowl.
Dip each piece of cauliflower into egg mixture and then roll into flour mixture. Place on baking sheet.
Continue until you have coated all of the cauliflower.
Place on baking sheet.
Bake for 25 minutes until pieces are a little crispy on the edges. Make sure to shake up halfway through to prevent from sticking.
Put the baked cauliflower back into the bowl & pour the hot sauce on top. Completely coating the cauliflower. Pour back onto baking sheet.
Place in the oven for an additional 8 minutes. Then broil on HIGH for 1 minute. Option to broil longer but keep an eye on them!
For the ranch sauce, combine all the ingredients in the food processor and blend. (You’ll have to blend it for a little until cashew pieces are blended completely.
