Amount

Ingredient

1

cauliflower head

1 cup

water

½ tsp

salt

1 cup

all-purpose flour

1 tsp

garlic salt

1 tsp

smoked paprika

1 tsp

onion powder

½ tsp

black pepper, freshly ground

2 tbsp

butter

1 tsp

vinegar

Instructions

Whisk together the flour, garlic salt, paprika, onion powder, black pepper, and salt in a large bowl. Add the water until a thick batter is formed.

Toss the cauliflower florets with the batter, then place in a single layer in the bottom of your Air Fryer. Repeat with the rest of the cauliflower; knowing that you may have to work in two batches depending on the size of your air fryer.

Then, place the air fryer tray into the air fryer and set to 7 minutes at 400 degrees F. Let cook, then flip/shake about halfway through cooking.

Next, heat the butter, buffalo hot sauce and vinegar over medium heat. Finally, toss with the crispy cauliflower and serve immediately.
