Ingredients
- 1 medium cauliflower
- 190g of almond flour
- 4 large egg whites
- 60 ml of hot sauce
- 2 tablespoons of heavy cream
- 1 Teaspoon of paprika
- 1 tablespoon of sugar free maple syrup
- 1 Teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
Directions
Preheat your oven to 200°C
Wash the cauliflower and cut it into bite-sized florets.
In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, salt, paprika, and garlic powder.
In another bowl, beat the egg whites until frothy.
Dip each cauliflower floret into the egg whites, then coat it in the almond flour mixture. Place the coated florets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the cauliflower for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through.
While the cauliflower is baking, prepare the buffalo sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the hot sauce, heavy cream, and sugar-free maple syrup. Heat over low heat, stirring until well combined.
Drizzle the buffalo sauce over the baked cauliflower, or toss the florets in the sauce to coat evenly.
Serve immediately, optionally with a side of blue cheese dip to balance the heat.
