  • 1 Medium Cauliflower Cut into Florets.

Dry Breading

  • 1 Cup Almond Flour
  • 2 Tbsp Potato Starch
  • 1 Tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 Tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 Tsp Cayenne Powder
  • 1/2 Tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 TSP Salt
  • 2 Eggs Beaten
  • 2 Tbsp Almond Milk Or dairy free milk of choice.
  • Cooking Spray I like Avocado cooking spray.

Wing Sauce

  • 1 Tbsp Avocado Oil
  • 2 Tbsp Garlic Minced
  • 2 Tbsp Ginger Minced
  • 1 Tbsp Sesame Oil
  • 2 Tsp Rice Wine Vinegar
  • 1/4 Cup Coconut Aminos Or Soy Sauce

  • 1 Tbsp Corn Starch

Instructions
 

  • Start by Preheating your oven to 425 degrees.
  • Next you want to take your cauliflower flip it over top side down and remove the stem.
  • I like using my knife to cut all around the core first. Take your knife and make a cross incision all the way through the stem making an x.
  • This allows you to break it open into 2 halves. Cut out the stem with your knife and give it a good twist to remove it.
  • Now you can start chopping your florets into large bite size pieces and putting them into a bowl.

Breading Your Cauliflower Wings

  • In another bowl mix all your dry ingredients for your breading together. Make sure it's well mixed.
  • In a third bowl beat together 2 eggs and 2 tablespoons of almond milk.
  • Use a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top if you have one.
  • Now set up a station and dip your cauliflower florets into the egg wash, then the dry breading. Make sure it is fully coated and then place on your rack.
  • Once your rack is full, spray with cooking spray and put it in the oven for 25 minutes.

Wing Sauce

  • To make your wing sauce, heat a sauce pan and add in your oil.
  • Next add in your minced garlic and fresh ginger.
  • Now you want to add in all of your other ingredients and the gochugaru stirring consistently.
  • Once you add in your corn starch let it simmer for about 3 - 5 minutes until thickened.
  • Now you can take out your cauliflower and carefully remove it from the rack and place it in a large bowl.
  • Pour your wing sauce over the cauliflower and gently coat.
  • Place back on the rack and in the oven for another additional 5 minutes.
  • Remove and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
