- 1/2 cup Plant milk Dairy-free option
- 1/4 cup Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 cup Gluten-free bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha Adjust for spice preference

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Wash the cauliflower and remove the leaves.

- In a bowl, whisk together the plant milk, cornstarch, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until smooth.
- In another bowl, prepare the gluten-free bread crumbs.
Cooking
- Dip each cauliflower piece into the milk mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Roll the coated cauliflower in the gluten-free bread crumbs until evenly covered.
- Lay the coated florets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space in between.
- Drizzle sriracha and maple syrup over the bites for added flavor.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
Serving
- Remove the bites from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauces or toppings.
Notes
For extra crunch, use panko bread crumbs instead of regular gluten-free crumbs. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven for best results.
