For extra flavor, consider adding a dash of garlic powder or smoked paprika to the crouton mixture. If you prefer a milder flavor, use a mild buffalo wing sauce or adjust the amount to your liking. Ensure the cauliflower florets are spread out evenly on the baking sheet to allow for even cooking and crisping. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for best results.

StepPreheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. (5 minutes)
02
StepWhisk wing sauce, mayonnaise, and egg together in a large bowl. Toss cauliflower florets in the sauce mixture to coat completely. Spread cauliflower out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. (10 minutes)

StepBake in the preheated oven until cauliflower is golden brown, tender, and the crust is crispy, about 15 minutes. Let sit on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before removing to allow the crust to set. (20 minutes)
