Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425˚F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking sheet.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mix together flour, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Then, add 3/4 cup water and hot sauce. Stir to combine. The resulting batter should be a little sticky, yet loose enough to coat the cauliflower florets. If batter is too thick and sticky, add more water--one tablespoon at a time--until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • In a second mixing bowl, add the panko bread crumbs. Line them up side-by-side to create your dipping station.
  • Toss cauliflower florets in the batter, making sure each piece is evenly coated.
  • Gently shake off excess batter from the florets before tossing them in Panko breadcrumbs.
  • Once fully coated in breadcrumbs, arrange the coated cauliflower on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Leave a little space between each one to ensure they don’t stick together. Bake until the cauliflower is crispy and golden around edges, about 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir vegan mayo, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, and agave.
  • Once the florets are crispy and golden, remove them from the oven and toss with the sauce in a large bowl. You can serve them immediately. To make them even crispier, return them to the pan and put them back in the oven for 2 more minutes.
