You spoke, and we heard you - cauliflower wings are the way to go.
We have two fan-favorite recipes that’ll make your mouth water. Your vegan and meat-eating friends alike will look forward to your draft day party.
Cauliflower Wings
(Gluten Free, Vegan and Whole 30 approved)
Ingredients
1 cup superfine almond flour
½ cup unsweetened almond milk (can use any milk)
1 tsp onion salt
1 tsp paprika
½ tsp garlic powder
4 cups cauliflower florets, approx.. 1 medium cauliflower
½ cup buffalo sauce (we love Frank’s)
1 Tbsp vegan butter (can sub with ghee if not dairy-free for Whole30)
Instructions
Cut the cauliflower into pieces. Remove most of the stem and chop the cauliflower into bite-sized pieces.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
Make the batter: In a large bowl, combine almond flour, almond milk, onion salt, garlic powder and paprika in a bowl and mix until smooth.
Add the cauliflower florets to the mixture and toss to coat.
Place florets in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown, flipping halfway through.
Make the buffalo sauce: Meanwhile, mix the hot sauce & melted vegan butter/ghee together in a bowl.
Pour the buffalo sauce evenly over the cauliflower & toss to coat.
Bake again for an additional 10 minutes or until crispy and just starting to brown
Recipe Notes

Good old fashioned cauliflower wings
Note: not gluten free because of the all-purpose flour
¾ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon paprika
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
¾ cup milk or milk alternative
1 head cauliflower
¼ cup buffalo sauce or hot sauce
2 tablespoons coconut oil or vegetable oil
1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450˚F (230˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, add the flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and milk, and stir until well-combined.
Break the head of cauliflower into florets, about 1½-inches wide. Add the cauliflower florets to the batter, making sure each piece is evenly coated. Arrange the coated cauliflower on the baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the buffalo sauce, coconut oil, and honey and stir until evenly combined. Brush the buffalo sauce mixture on the cauliflower and bake for another 20 minutes.
