Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 25 mins
Total Time: 35 mins
Ingredients
Blue Cheese Dressing:
1/3 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon avocado oil mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon coarse kosher salt (not fine salt)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
Buffalo Sauce:
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 cup hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Buffalo cauliflower:
1 lb. fresh cauliflower florets
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt (not fine salt)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed broiler-safe baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Make the blue cheese dressing by mixing all its ingredients in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Make the buffalo sauce: In a large microwave safe bowl, melt the coconut oil. Whisk in the hot sauce, honey and garlic powder. Set aside.
- In another large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with the olive oil, salt, smoked paprika and garlic powder. Spread on the baking sheet and roast until tender-crisp, about 15 minutes.
- Switch the oven to broil and set an oven rack 6 inches below the heat element (not directly below).
- Whisk the hot sauce mixture again. Add the roasted cauliflower florets and toss to coat. Return the cauliflower florets to the baking sheet and broil until browned and bubbly, keeping a close eye on them so they do not burn, 2-3 minutes.
- Serve the buffalo cauliflower hot, with the blue cheese dressing and celery sticks.
