Ingredients
- 1 Large head cauliflower cut into bite-sized florets
- Cooking oil spray
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon green onions sliced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
For the Sweet and Spicy Sticky Sauce:
- ¼ Cup honey
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- ¼ Cup Low sodium soy sauce or coconut amino
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 teaspoon Gluten-free flour or Cornstarch
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking tray with parchment pepper.
- Arrange the 1 Large Head Cauliflower florets in a single layer onto the prepared baking tray and spray with Cooking Oil Spray. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon Garlic Salt, Salt and pepper, to taste, and using your hands, toss well to coat.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until it starts to brown on the edges. While cauliflower is cooking, combine all the sauce ingredients ( ¼ Cup Honey, 2 Garlic Cloves (minced), ¼ Cup Low sodium soy sauce or coconut amino, 1 tablespoon Sriracha, 1 tablespoon Hoisin Sauce, and 1 teaspoon Gluten-free flour or cornstarch ) into a small saucepan and whisk until well incorporated.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir frequently, until sauce thickens about 4-5 minutes.
- Once the cauliflower has finished baking, remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes.
- Pour the sauce over and toss until fully coated. Top with 1 tablespoon Green Onions (sliced) and 1 tablespoon Sesame Seeds and enjoy!
Notes
- Soak the cauliflower in salted water to make sure all debris is removed. Rinse well.
- Cut the florets into even sizes to ensure even cooking.
- Use cornstarch if you can, it will make the sauce thicken well.
- Sometimes it is hard to get that really crispy cauliflower in the oven. Feel free to air-fry them. Follow my air fryer instructions.
- Store leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
