Delicious Baked Buffalo Cauliflower Wings appetizer that is vegan, paleo, and gluten-free. They are perfect for Game Day!
My husband said I have too many pictures of him and me on my IG Feed, hence I’m posting a recipe before the Super Bowl. So here I am in Cabo working on my second job.
For your Game Day… here are Baked Buffalo Cauliflower Wings with a slight twist of Indian spices. These wings are vegan, paleo-approved ana gluten-free. In order to make them paleo, you’ll need a sauce that’s paleo-approved. I love Noble Made Medium Buffalo Sauce which is found at Whole Foods.
The wings are super easy to make and twice baked. Once done, serve with ranch or blue cheese dressing along with side carrots and celery! Enjoy!

What could you use instead of almond flour? We have wheat and nut allergies
Hi Amara.. could you do coconut flour or even cornstarch/arrowroot powder?
Could you make these without sauce? Would you cook them 40 minutes if so?
Yes, you can. It may be a little try so I would add a tablespoon of oil.
Such a great ?? recipe for super bowl . Love that it’s vegan and healthy
