Baked Buffalo Cauliflower

Buffalo cauliflower is becoming a popular dish, being offered in several restaurants thee days. And for good reason…..it is delicious! However, these restaurants are deep frying the cauliflower, essentially ruining a healthy food. This version is baked and full of flavor but not fat and calories. This is a vegetable dish that actually improves with reheating. Reheat in the oven to make extra crispy. To cut the heat, serve with guacamole. Enjoy!

1 head of fresh cauliflower

1/4 cup flour

1/4 cup water

1/2 cup hot sauce (more or less to taste)

1/2 tsp honey (optional to cut the heat)

Clean and chop the cauliflower, In a large shallow bowl mix the flour with the water to form a paste. Toss the cauliflower in the mixture so each piece is covered. Place the coated cauliflower on a baking sheet with parchment paper and bake at 450 degrees for about 20 minutes (or until browned). Place hot sauce in large shallow bowl , drizzle in the honey and toss the cooked cauliflower in the hot sauce until fully coated.
