How to make low-carb buffalo cauliflower wings
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment or baking paper. Set aside.
Step 2: Cut your cauliflower into large florets. These wings are mostly going to be eaten with your hands so keep the florets cut large so they are easy to handle.
Step 3: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together your almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic and onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Step 4: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the eggs.
Step 5: Firstly, dip the cauliflower floret into the egg mixture and coat well. Then dip into the almond flour and parmesan cheese mixture and coat well. Place the coated cauliflower on your prepared baking sheet.
Step 6: Bake in the oven for 20 – 25 minutes, flipping halfway through until the wings have turned slightly golden.
Step 7: As soon as the wings come out of the oven, place them in a mixing bowl and pour over the low-carb BBQ sauce. Toss to coat.
Step 8: Place the wings back on the baking sheet and bake for a further 15 minutes until completely cooked through. Serve immediately.
Vegan wings? No problem!
You can easily make this recipe vegan-friendly with some simple ingredient swaps. Instead of using beaten eggs to dip the cauliflower florets, you can use any unsweetened plant milk like soy or almond.
Instead of using parmesan cheese for flavor, you can substitute with nutritional yeast. This will add a cheesy, rich flavor while making these wings completely vegan too!
Storing leftover wings
These cauliflower wings are best served immediately after they come out of the oven. This is to keep them crispy and hot.
However, if you are left with wings at the end of dinner, you can store and use them in tacos or wraps over the next few days.
Refrigerate for up to 3 days in an airtight container before use.
