These crispy cauliflower bites, cooked in the air fryer, make a great appetizer or side dish. We like them dipped in remoulade sauce.

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.25 cups cream
  • 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
  • 0.25 teaspoons salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
  • 1 cup pork rinds
  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 0.25 teaspoons cayenne pepper , or to taste
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt , or to taste
  • 4 cups cauliflower , cut into bite-sized pieces
  • avocado oil cooking spray
  • 0.5 cups remoulade sauce , optional

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the air fryer to 370 degrees F (188 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Whisk eggs, cream, onion powder, salt, and black pepper together in a medium bowl. Stir crushed pork rinds, Parmesan cheese, smoked paprika, cayenne, and salt together in a large bowl.

  3. 3

    Coat cauliflower pieces with the egg mixture, and then toss with the crumb mixture. Place coated cauliflower pieces in a single layer on a parchment lined plate, and spray with oil.

  4. 4

    Place cauliflower pieces, sprayed side down, in a single layer in the preheated air fryer. Spray again with oil. You may need to fry cauliflower in batches.
