• 1 large egg
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
• Salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 cup Panko bread crumbs
• Cooking spray or olive oil spray
• 1/2 cup Mayonnaise 1 teaspoon blue cheese crumbles
• 2-3 tablespoons buffalo sauce ((like Frank's red hot))
• Blue cheese crumbles ((optional))
• Ranch dipping sauce ((optional))

Preparación

1. 1

   Note: It's best to cut the cauliflower into even sized small florets. After rinsing, pat dry with a clean kitchen towel or with paper towels.

2. 2

   Prep: Place the cauliflower florets in a large mixing bowl.

3. 3

   Preheat air fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 380º F (192º C).

4. 4

   Whisk eggs: In a small bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy.

5. 5

   Pour over cauliflower: Pour the whisked, frothy eggs over the cauliflower florets and toss to combine.

6. 6

   Season: Sprinkle in the spices and toss to distribute them evenly.

7. 7

   Add panko and toss: Add the panko breadcrumbs and toss to coat.

8. 8

   Prep basket: Lightly grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray and transfer the cauliflower, one by one in the air fryer basket on a single layer, leaving space between the florets so the hot air can circulate properly. Don’t overcrowd the basket. Work in batches if necessary.

9. 9

   Air fry: Cook the cauliflower until crisp tender with browned edges, about 14-18 minutes, tossing the florets by shaking the basket a couple of times throughout the cooking process. The exact cooking varies depending on the brand, size and type of air fryer as well as the size of the florets.

    Serve: Remove cauliflower from the basket and repeat the process with the remaining cauliflower. Serve with the buffalo dipping sauce or with your favorite dipping sauce.
