What You'll Need for Breaded Cauliflower
Essential Ingredients for Breaded Cauliflower
1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup plant milk
1 tsp garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh Herbs
Sprinkle some fresh herbs like parsley or chives over the hot cauliflower for an enhanced flavour and appealing presentation.
How Panko Enhances Crispiness
Panko breadcrumbs add a light and flaky texture, making the breaded cauliflower extra crispy. Opting for panko over regular breadcrumbs results in a crunchier coating. You can find panko in most supermarkets, usually in the baking or bread aisle.
Steps to Cook Breaded Cauliflower in Air Fryer
Here’s how to whip up your breaded cauliflower bites.
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Set up three bowls: one with flour, one with plant milk, and one with panko breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Dip cauliflower florets into flour, then plant milk, and finally panko mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.
Arrange cauliflower in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
Cook for 20 minutes until golden brown, shaking the basket halfway through.
Avoid Overcrowding
Cook in batches if necessary to ensure each cauliflower floret becomes equally crispy.
Serve these breaded cauliflower bites with a tangy dipping sauce, alongside a fresh salad or as part of a vegetarian buffet. These cauliflower wings, baked to perfection, are a great addition to any gathering.
