Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Whisk wing sauce, mayonnaise, and egg together in a large bowl. Toss cauliflower florets in the sauce mixture to coat completely. Spread cauliflower out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. (10 minutes)

03

Step

Pulse croutons into fine crumbs in a food processor. Add Parmesan cheese and mix to combine. Sprinkle crouton and cheese mixture evenly over the cauliflower. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until cauliflower is golden brown, tender, and the crust is crispy, about 15 minutes. Let sit on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before removing to allow the crust to set. (20 minutes)

05

Step

While the cauliflower bakes, prepare the blue cheese dip: Mix blue cheese dressing with sour cream and black pepper in a small bowl until smooth. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Serve the baked buffalo cauliflower florets immediately with the blue cheese dip on the side for dipping. Enjoy! (5 minutes)

For extra flavor, consider adding a dash of garlic powder or smoked paprika to the crouton mixture.
If you prefer a milder flavor, use a mild buffalo wing sauce or adjust the amount to your liking.
Ensure the cauliflower florets are spread out evenly on the baking sheet to allow for even cooking and crisping.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for best results.

    These were amazing! My kids even loved them, and they usually hate cauliflower.

    Next time, I'm going to try air frying them for an even crispier texture.
