These baked Cauliflower Buffalo Wings are finger-licking good. Cauliflower is very versatile and an extremely nutritious vegetable. Not only can you make these amazing Cauliflower Buffalo Wings but you can also roast it to a char or steam and puree it and it transforms into a mashed potato-like dish with fewer calories. These Cauliflower Buffalo Wings are incredible and very addictive even to nonvegans and especially for kids! 

Chicken Wings

These 6-ingredient buffalo wings are the perfect vegan, gluten-free healthy snack for a movie, game day, summer barbecue parties, potlucks, or whenever you find yourself craving serious comfort food that won’t leave you feeling weighed down.

For potlucks, I love to additionally serve Vegan Lentil Kofta which is also gluten-free and absolutely delicious and a must-try recipe!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 head cauliflower broken into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/2 cup almond meal
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 Tbsp onion powder

  • 1/2 cup vegan hot sauce or vegan barbecue sauce any sauce you like

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Combine all of the ingredients except the hot sauce in a bowl. Whisk together until smooth (consistency should be on the thinner side).
  2. Mix in cauliflower, being sure that all the pieces are coated. Place cauliflower on a baking tray in a single layer. Use parchment paper to prevent it from sticking and roast in the oven for 15 minutes.
  3. Using a spatula, gently scoop the cauliflower from the tray and put it into the bowl of hot sauce. Carefully and slowly toss the cauliflower around to coat with sauce.
  4. Place the cauliflower back on the baking tray and roast for 25 more minutes until the sauce has absorbed/firmed up on the cauliflower. Serve with your favorite dressing and voilá enjoy!

Notes

Sprinkle some nutritional yeast on top and serve while still hot.

    Maricel, these look incredible. I would love to make them next weekend 🙂
    What is the hot sauce you use? Is it Sriracha Sauce?
