30 min

Ingredients

  • 1 large head Cauliflower
  • ⅓ cup Hot Sauce
  • 2 tbsp Plant-based Butter
  • ½ cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • ½ tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 12 whole Flour Tortillas
  • 2 cups Coleslaw Mix
  • 3 tbsp Vegan Mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
  • ½ tsp Dried Dill
  • 3 whole Green Onions

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Whisk flour, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and ½ cup water into a thin batter.
  2. Dip cauliflower florets in batter, letting excess drip off. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake 20 minutes until crispy.
  3. While cauliflower bakes, mix hot sauce and melted plant-based butter. Make the ranch slaw: toss coleslaw mix with vegan mayo, apple cider vinegar, dried dill, and a pinch of salt.
  4. Remove cauliflower from oven. Toss in the buffalo sauce until evenly coated. Return to oven for 5 minutes.
  5. Warm tortillas in a dry skillet. Fill with buffalo cauliflower, ranch slaw, and sliced green onions.
