Air fried crispy cauliflower coated in seasoned breadcrumbs and egg, a perfect appetizer or side dish!
Ingredients:
  • For the blue cheese dip:
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • Pinch of ground black pepper
  • Dash of hot sauce
  • For the crispy cauliflower:
  • 1 head cauliflower
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 large eggs + 1/4 cup water
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • Nonstick spray, for air fryer
Instructions:
  • Prepare the blue cheese dip by mixing the ingredients in a bowl. Chill in the fridge until ready to serve.
  • Cut the cauliflower into florets of varying sizes, aiming to keep them all under 1 1/2 inches.
  • Coat the cauliflower: Combine florets with salt, chili powder, and garlic powder in a medium bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together eggs and water. Pour the egg mixture over the cauliflower, ensuring it's fully coated. Finish by tossing the cauliflower in breadcrumbs until well coated.
  • Make perfectly crispy cauliflower in the air fryer: Coat the air fryer basket with nonstick spray and arrange a single layer of cauliflower florets. Air-fry at 350 ̊F for 7 minutes, flip, and cook for an additional 7 minutes until golden brown. Repeat for remaining cauliflower.
  • Enjoy the crispy cauliflower immediately after frying each batch or continuously as they come out of the fryer. For the best flavor, serve the cauliflower hot with the blue cheese dip either as an appetizer or side dish.
