From Natalie Perry of Perry’s Plate.
Ingredients
- 1 head (large) Cauliflower, Cut Into 1 1/2-inch Florets
- 8 Tablespoons Melted Butter
- ½ cups Cayenne Pepper Sauce (Like Frank’s Wing Sauce), Plus More For Dipping
- 1-½ cup Almond Flour Or Bread Crumbs
- 2 teaspoons No-salt Seasoning (optional)
- 1 cup Ranch Dressing, Or As Needed, For Dipping
Preparation
Turn oven to a “keep warm” setting or preheat it to the lowest temperature and then turn the oven off.
Put cauliflower florets in a large bowl.
Mix melted butter and cayenne pepper sauce in a small bowl and pour it over the cauliflower. Mix everything together well.
Combine almond flour or bread crumbs and seasoning (if using) in another large bowl or a large resealable plastic bag. Transfer cauliflower into the bowl (or bag) with the breading. Use tongs or a slotted spoon so you don’t end up pouring the remaining sauce from the bottom of the cauliflower bowl. Toss (or shake) the cauliflower to coat it in the breading.
Transfer half of the coated cauliflower to your air fryer, putting them both on the bottom and upper rack.
Set air fryer to 350ºF and cook for 12–15 minutes, until cauliflower has golden brown spots and is cooked through, but not mushy.
Put the cooked cauliflower in a warm oven to keep warm. Cook the rest of the prepped cauliflower the same way.
Make the buffalo ranch dipping sauce by adding a desired amount of wing sauce to the ranch dressing, to taste. Serve the buffalo cauliflower with the dipping sauce.
