Ingredients

  • 1 small cauliflower or ½ large cauliflower
  • ½ cup wholemeal flour
  • ½ cup white flour
  • 1 cup So Good Almond Milk, Unsweetened + extra
  • 6 Weet-Bix, crushed
  • 1 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 190°C and line a large baking tray with baking paper.
  2. Cut the cauliflower into bite size florets.
  3. Mix together the flours and almond milk in a large bowl to form a thick batter. Add more almond milk if needed to get the right consistency for a batter.
  4. Add the cauliflower florets and mix well to make sure each piece is evenly coated.
  5. In another bowl, mix together the crushed Weet-Bix, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper and season generously with salt and pepper.
  6. Dip each piece of battered cauliflower into the crushed Weet-Bix mixture to coat and place on the lined baking tray.
  7. Bake for 45-50 minutes, flipping halfway through or until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Serve immediately with your favourite dipping sauce or make it a meal and serve alongside rice and your favourite veggies.
