Batter and bake
⏱ 20 minDip each floret in the batter, letting the excess drip off, and arrange on the tray. Bake for 20 minutes until set and crisp.
- 3

Whisk the buffalo sauce with the oil or melted vegan butter. Toss the baked florets in the sauce to coat.

Bake again until sticky
⏱ 12 min 30 secReturn to the oven for 10–15 minutes more, until sticky and crisp. Serve with celery and vegan ranch.
Notes
Baking instead of frying keeps these light. Use chickpea flour for extra protein and to make them gluten-free. Toss in sauce only after the first bake so they stay crisp.
