These Spicy Cauliflower Buffalo Wings are a big deal in our home. First, they taste like a sweet gift from the heavens, and two, they are a super hit whenever we have people over because they are cool and fun to eat.
People go crazy when they hear that those delicious wings they have in front of them are actually made with cauliflower instead of chicken. Who knew cauliflower could sub an animal in such a perfect way? Mind blown.
People love finger foods. And wings are definitely high up there on the finger food world. But chicken can sometimes be tricky to handle, and your wing-making game can become more difficult than it needs to be.
Welp, enter cauliflower florets. Because veggies make everything more simple. And healthier. And totally delicious.
If you are a cauliflower fan, you are going to love these.
We put out little dipping sauces around the wings for our guests to dip them in, but people seem to enjoy them just as they are. Plane. They are delicious as they are. No need to get extra fancy here.
These cute little cauliflower wings are not 100% Paleo, but they are gluten free and dairy free. They aren’t Paleo because they are made with gluten-free all purpose flour, which is added to the batter to get the florets to bake nice and fluffy and crispy.
If you’re fully Paleo, this recipe might not be for you, but if you don’t have a crazy sensitivity to gluten-free flour, I definitely recommend you give this little recipe a try. It’s a wonderful appetizer that is very nutritious and fun to eat. These Spicy Cauliflower Buffalo Wings are:
- Baked to perfection
- Spicy
- Crispy
- Vegan
- Free of gluten
- Crowd pleasers
- Delicious
