Creating Air Fryer Buffalo Cauliflower is straightforward if you follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Cauliflower: Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets and set aside.

2. Make the Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine flour, water, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth.

3. Dip the Cauliflower: Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, ensuring it gets fully coated.

4. Coat with Breadcrumbs: Roll each drenched floret in the breadcrumbs to create a crispy coating.

5. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.

6. Arrange in Air Fryer: Lightly coat the air fryer basket with olive oil or cooking spray. Place the breaded florets in a single layer, ensuring they don’t overcrowd.

7. Air Fry: Cook for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even crisping.

8. Coat with Buffalo Sauce: After 10 minutes, carefully remove the cauliflower from the air fryer and place in a large bowl. Drizzle with Buffalo sauce and toss to coat evenly.

9. Final Cook: Return the sauced cauliflower to the air fryer and cook for an additional 5 minutes to crisp up the coating.

10. Remove and Serve: Once golden and crispy, remove from the air fryer and let cool slightly before serving.

These steps will lead you to an incredible dish that packs a flavorful punch!
