Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line baking sheet with parchment.

Tip: Hot oven is key for crispness.
2 ✓

Cut cauliflower into florets.

Tip: Uniform size means even baking.
3 ✓

Whisk flour, water, spices to pancake batter consistency.

Tip: Too thick = bready; too thin = slides off.
4 ✓

Dip florets, shake off excess, arrange on tray not touching.

Tip: Crowding causes steaming.
5 ✓

Bake 20 mins, flipping halfway.

Tip: Cooks the batter solid.
6 ✓

Mix BBQ sauce with oil. Brush over wings.

Tip: Oil helps heat transfer and caramelization.
7 ✓

Bake 10-15 mins until sticky and browned.

Tip: Watch for burning sugar.

Recipe FAQ

Why soggy?
Overcrowded pan = steaming instead of roasting. Give them space!
Flour swap?
Chickpea flour works great for a gluten-free, crispier result.
