Method

  1. Toss the cauliflower with the olive oil, garlic powder and salt until evenly coated.

  2. Air fry at 400°F in a single layer, shaking the basket halfway, until browned at the edges and tender.

  3. Whisk the buffalo sauce and melted butter together in a large bowl.

  4. Tip in the hot cauliflower and toss until glossy, then return it to the basket for a final blast so the sauce clings.

  5. Pile onto a plate and serve with ranch or blue cheese dressing and celery sticks.

Tips

  • Cook in two batches if your basket is small; crowded cauliflower steams instead of browning.
  • Most buffalo sauces are gluten-free, but check the label of your sauce and dressing.
  • For extra crunch, toss the florets in 2 tbsp cornstarch with the seasoning before air frying.
