Roasted buffalo cauliflower is a flavorful appetizer for game day or side dish for your next meal. Cauliflower florets are tossed in buffalo sauce and oven roasted until tender.
Cut cauliflower head into bite-sized florets and place in a large bowl. Add buffalo sauce and toss to coat, adding more sauce as needed. Cauliflower should be lightly coated in sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
Pour cauliflower onto a parchment lined baking sheet and spread into a single layer. Bake for 18 minutes, then test cauliflower by piercing with a fork. If needed, continue cooking until cauliflower is tender-crisp.
Turn on broiler and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until cauliflower is lightly browned and crisp around the edges. Monitor the broiler while in use - food can quickly burn under the broiler.
Optionally, serve with blue cheese or ranch dressing.
Notes
Baking time will vary based on size of cauliflower florets. The larger the cauliflower pieces, the longer they will take to cook through.
Baking too long will cause your cauliflower to be mushy and overcooked, so check occasionally by trying to pierce your cauliflower with a fork. A perfectly cooked piece of cauliflower can be pierced through with little resistance, but will not fall apart.
