Cooking Time: 45 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour

Ingredients

  • 1 head head of cauliflower
  • 2 eggs, whisked
  • 2 cups whole wheat panko crumbs (use GF breadcrumbs if needed), seasoned with salt u0026 pepper
  • Cooking spray

BBQ Sauce

  • 3/4 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 1/2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • Pinch of hot sauce

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 F.
  2. Cut the cauliflower into florets. Dip each floret into the whisked egg and then into the breadcrumbs.
  3. Line them up on a parchment lined baking dish and spray each one with cooking spray. Bake for 35-40 minutes.
  4. In a medium sized saucepan, add in BBQ sauce ingredients and bring to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat and let it simmer for about 8-10 minutes until thick, stirring occasionally.
  6. Once cauliflower is ready, pour into the saucepan and toss together until fully mixed.
  7. If you prefer a crunchier popper, you can serve the sauce on the side as a dip!

Notes

  1. Any breadcrumb or coating will work in place of Panko.
  2. To save time, feel free to pair these with your favorite store bought sauce of choice!
