Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
  • olive oil spray (or 1 TB for brushing on baking sheet)
  • ½ cup flour
  • ½ cup water
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup hot sauce Frank's (for a buffalo flavor), or your favorite hot sauce
  • 1 teaspoon honey OR agave syrup
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • To Serve: Blue Cheese (traditional or vegan)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450ºF.
    Line a baking sheet with foil, and spray or brush with olive oil.
    Cut your cauliflower into small bite-size pieces.
  • Mix all ingredients except cauliflower in a large mixing bowl. Add cauliflower and toss.  If there's not enough sauce to fully coat your cauliflower, add a little more water and toss again.
    Remove cauliflower from bowl with a slotted spoon, and place on baking sheet in a single layer.
    Note: Depending on the size of your bowl, it might be easiest to add and remove the cauliflower in small batches.
  • Roast 20-25 minutes. If you want them extra crispy, switch the oven to broil the last 5-10 minutes (but watch to make sure they don't burn).
  • Drizzle more hot sauce over cauliflower.  Serve hot with blue cheese dressing (or other preferred sauce).
