Ingredients

For the cauliflower

  • ½ cup whole spelt flour (can sub whole-wheat flour)
  • ½ cup almond milk plus 2 tablespoons, (can sub cow’s milk) 
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 pinch sea salt and ground black pepper
  • 1 head cauliflower chopped into florets

For the Buffalo sauce

  • ½ cup hot sauce
  • ¼ cup distilled white vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon prepared horseradish (optional, I did not use)
  • ¼ teaspoon ground paprika

Yogurt dill sauce

  • ½ cup plain yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 pinch of sea salt and ground black pepper

Optional toppings

  • 1 carrot diced
  • 1 celery stalk diced
  • 2 tablespoons parsley chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • Place the flour, milk, hot sauce, garlic, and salt and pepper in a bowl. Whisk to combine.
  • Dredge the cauliflower florets in the flour mixture until well coated. Using a slotted spoon, remove the cauliflower and place it on a greased rimmed baking sheet. Bake until pale golden brown, about 15 minutes.
  • While the cauliflower is baking, make the Buffalo sauce. Place all of the ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine.
  • Pour the Buffalo sauce evenly over the cauliflower florets while they're still on the baking sheet. Toss to combine and place back in the oven for 5 minutes.
  • If making the yogurt dill sauce, place all of the ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine.
  • To serve, place the cauliflower bites on a plate and top with yogurt dill sauce and optional toppings such as chopped carrot, celery, and parsley.
