Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a bowl, whisk 1 large egg with 1/2 cup almond flour, 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper until a batter forms.
  2. Step 2: Dip 4 cups cauliflower florets into the batter, coating evenly, then place them spaced out on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes until edges begin to crisp.
  3. Step 3: Meanwhile, combine 1/3 cup hot sauce with 3 tbsp melted unsalted butter in a small bowl.
  4. Step 4: Remove cauliflower from oven and gently toss each floret in the buffalo sauce mixture. Return to oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes until crispy and saucy.
  5. Step 5: For the blue cheese dip, mix 1/2 cup sour cream, 2 tbsp mayonnaise, 1/4 cup blue cheese crumbles, 1 tsp lemon juice, and 1 tbsp chopped fresh chives until creamy.
  6. Step 6: Serve the buffalo cauliflower bites hot with blue cheese dip on the side.
