Ingredients

Cauliflower

  • 1 medium head cauliflower, cut into bite-size florets (about 5 cups)
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Buffalo sauce

  • 1/3 cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted

For serving

  • 4 celery stalks, cut into sticks
  • Greek yogurt ranch or blue cheese dressing (optional)

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 425°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
  2. Toss the florets with the avocado oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika and salt. Spread in a single layer with space between pieces.
  3. Roast 20 minutes, flipping once, until the edges are browned and a fork slides into the stems with a little resistance.
  4. Whisk the buffalo sauce and melted butter together in a large bowl. Add the hot cauliflower and toss to coat.
  5. Return the cauliflower to the baking sheet and roast 8 to 10 minutes more, until the sauce is sticky and clinging to the florets.
  6. Serve hot with celery sticks and ranch for dipping.
Tip: Cut the florets about the size of a wing so they cook evenly and are easy to pick up.
Dad jokeThese buffalo bites are so good, they had the whole herd coming back for seconds.
