Ingredients
- 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup whole grain breadcrumbs
- Cooking spray or 1 tablespoon olive oil
Method
- Preheat the air fryer to 200°C (400°F).
- In a bowl, mix the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and salt. Gradually whisk in the almond milk until smooth.
- Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, allowing excess to drip off, then coat it with breadcrumbs.
- Place the coated florets in the air fryer basket and lightly spray or drizzle with olive oil. Cook for 12-15 minutes, shaking halfway through.
- Once crispy and golden brown, remove from the air fryer and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
Pro tips for maximum crisp
- For extra crispiness, double coat the florets by repeating the batter and breadcrumb steps.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days; reheat in the air fryer for best results.
- Experiment with different spices like cayenne or nutritional yeast for varied flavors!
