Vegan Buffalo Cauliflower Wings

Ingredients

• 1 cup water
• 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons hot sauce of choice (I used Frank’s red hot), divided
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon ground paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• 1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
• Handful of celery, trimmed and cleaned
• Ranch dressing of choice (I used a store-bought vegan dressing)

Instructions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. To a measuring cup or small bowl, whisk together the water and 2 tablespoons of wing sauce. Set aside.
2. 2
   In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, onion powder, paprika, salt and freshly ground pepper. Pour the water mixture into the flour mixture and mix until combined.
3. 3
   Add the cauliflower and toss until combined. Transfer to a baking sheet and place in the oven to bake until cooked, about 15 minutes. (I used an air-fryer and it only needed about 10 minutes). Add the cauliflower to a bowl and toss with the additional wing sauce. Serve with slices of celery and ranch dressing.
