Shake n' Bake Buffalo Cauliflower Wings

These shake n' bake cauliflower wings are a one bag wonder! Healthy, delicious and with minimal clean-up, you'll make them again and again.

These buffalo cauliflower wings are simple, delicious, and are the perfect appetizer for your next crowd, party, or gathering.

They literally only use one big plastic bag to make. If that doesn't say easy clean up, what does?

When it comes down to it, I'm a lazy cook. I admire all of those cooks and bloggers out there who have time on their hands to make their own nut flours, almond milk, and other base ingredients, but here's the deal - I'm not too proud.

I'm busy. I'm a mom, I'm a business owner, and my time is money. So is yours. Don't make yourself nuts stressing over creating everything from scratch. Clean eating is hard enough - don't make it harder for yourself.

That's why I created this recipe. For me, but also for you. Because shake, bake, and you're done.

What do you need to make buffalo cauliflower wings?

The ingredients for these "shake n' bake" wings are kept minimal for a reason. Short on ingredients, but not on flavor!

A head of cauliflower, Frank's (because the answer is always Frank's), a little gluten-free breading/seasoning mixture, and an egg to make it stick is all you need to make these wings!

I use cassava flour because it's the best way to get a crispy exterior. It crisps up nicely when you bake these, and doesn't get soggy when you add the hot sauce.

I use Anthony's cassava flour regularly. I like their brand, and their bags always have funny little things on them that make me giggle. Plus, the price is right for my budget.

If you're feeling splurgy, I've heard great things about Otto's cassava flour. Apparently it's the Cadillac of cassava flour. Cadillac's aren't even really that nice. Why don't we call it the Beemer or Mercedes Benz of cassava flours?

How do you make shake n' bake wings?

Well - first you shake, then you bake! Literally. These cauliflower wings keep the dish load to an absolute minimum - as in, there are none other than the pan they're cooked on.

Crack your egg into the bag, "scramble" it.

Toss in your wings, then shake to coat.

Toss in your breading, shake to coat again.

Dump out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and pop them in the oven!

How long do you bake buffalo cauliflower wings?

Well, to be quite honest, that's going to depend a little bit on your oven, as well as how big you cut your cauliflower.

I recommend baking at 400° for 20-25 minutes. What you're looking for is a golden brown exterior with crispy edges. If they still look "white" then they're not done yet - give them a few more minutes.

You can also test them with a fork - if the cauliflower is tender, go ahead and pop the broiler on for a few minutes to crisp up the outside!

How do you serve buffalo cauliflower wings?

Well, for starters, they pair perfectly with my homemade ranch.

You can drizzle over the wings, or just serve it on the side for dunking. Add some celery and carrots, and your guests will be wowed!

With buffalo cauliflower wings this good, you'll never miss the meat.
