Buffalo Cauliflower Wings

We love cauliflower wings because they are so versatile and so delish. You can add your favorite spices, coatings, and sauces.

But we have to tell you – covering the cauliflower in a mixture that involves crispy onions is a complete GAME CHANGER. How have we not thought of this before?

You’ll need:

Cauliflower

Nondairy, unsweetened milk

Flour

Crispy onions

Nutritional yeast

Parsley

Garlic salt

Buffalo sauce (vegan margarine + hot sauce!)

How would you take these, plain or with a drizzle of vegan ranch?

Ingredients

  

• 1 medium-sized head cauliflower
• 1 cup unsweetened nondairy milk we prefer rice milk (it has a super neutral flavor & is awesome for cooking!)
• 1 cup flour
• 2 cups crispy onions
• 3 tbsp nutritional yeast
• 1 tbsp dried parsley
• 1 tsp garlic salt

Buffalo Sauce

• 3/4 cup vegan margarine
• 1 cup hot sauce

Instructions

 

• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Chop the cauliflower into bite-sized pieces.
• In one bowl, whisk together the milk and flour.
• In a food processor, add the crispy onions, nutritional yeast, parsley, and garlic salt and blend. Pour into a separate bowl.
• Dip each piece of cauliflower in the flour/milk mixture, then the crispy onion mixture, then place on a lined baking sheet.
• Bake the wings for ~35 minutes, until crispy (flip halfway). For extra crispiness, broil them for a few minutes or throw them in the air fryer!
• Make the buffalo sauce: melt the margarine in a saucepan. Add the hot sauce and mix.
• In a large bowl, add the cauliflower bites and buffalo sauce. Gently mix until completely covered.
• Serve with a drizzle of vegan ranch!
