For the Cauliflower Wings

  • 1 large head of cauliflower
  • ¾ cup whole wheat flour
  • 2 tsp paprika

  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 1 cup plant milk

  • 1 tsp chopped fresh chives
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • First, slice your cauliflower into bite-sized pieces.
  • Next, make the batter. Add your whole wheat flour, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and plant milk to a bowl and whisk well to combine.
  • In a separate bowl, add your panko breadcrumbs.
  • Toss your cauliflower pieces into the batter, then dunk each piece into the breadcrumbs.
  • Place your cauliflower pieces onto a baking tray, preferably a wired rack, so both sides can get nice and crispy!
  • Bake at 450f for 20-30 minutes until the edges are crispy.
  • Add your buffalo sauce to a bowl and dunk each cauliflower piece into the sauce. You could also brush the hot sauce on top of each piece.
  • Bake for another 15 minutes.
  • While your cauliflower is in the oven, make your tahini ranch sauce by mixing all of the ingredients together.
  • Serve with your tahini ranch, some carrots, and celery, and enjoy!
