crispy cauliflower bites recipe

Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup brown rice flour 
  • 2 tablespoons blanched almond meal or almond flour
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste 
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder 
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder 
  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika for that smoked flavor 
  • Dash of dried parsley 
  • 2/3 cup of water 
  • 1 medium to large head of cauliflower 
  • 1/3 cup of franks hot sauce or barbecue sauce 

Ingredients

Directions

  • Preheat your oven to 450°F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. 
  • Cut off the greens from your cauliflower and chop the head into 2-inch bites. 
  • Place the cauliflower in a single layer on the baking sheets, ensuring that the cauliflower bites do not touch one another (to allow the best crispiness). 
  • Drizzle with a small amount of olive oil and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until they crisp on the edges. 
  • While cauliflower is baking, blend the brown rice flour, almond flour, tomato paste, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, parsley, and ⅔ cup of water in a blender until the batter is smooth and thick. 
  • Check on the cauliflower after 20 mins. They will not get crispy all over while in the oven, so remove from the heat and let stand for 3 minutes to crisp up a bit more. 
  • Transfer to a bowl and drizzle with the sauce. 
  • Serve immediately (for best results, do not add sauce until ready to serve, as the sauce can cause cauliflower to lose crispiness).
  • Serves 6 cup-size servings.
