Let’s break down the process into easy-to-follow steps.

Step 1: Prepare the Cauliflower. Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets, ensuring they are uniform in size for even cooking.

Step 2: Make the Batter. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, water, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until smooth. The batter should be thick enough to coat the cauliflower but still pourable.

Step 3: Coat the Cauliflower. Add the cauliflower florets to the batter, ensuring each piece is fully coated. Shake off any excess batter before placing them in the air fryer.

Step 4: Air Fry the Cauliflower. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3 minutes. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place the battered cauliflower florets in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches. Air fry for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking, until the cauliflower is golden brown and crispy.

Step 5: Prepare the Buffalo Sauce. While the cauliflower is cooking, mix the buffalo sauce with the melted butter in a small bowl.

Step 6: Toss the Cauliflower in Buffalo Sauce. Once the cauliflower is done, place it in a large bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over the cauliflower and toss until each floret is evenly coated.

Step 7: Serve. Serve the buffalo cauliflower immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch or blue cheese, and some celery sticks on the side.

The instructions are very clear and easy.
