Buffalo Cauliflower Wings

Sorry, that it took forever for me to post this! I am excited to share this with you because I took the oppournity to prepare and make buffalo cauliflower wings in three different ways: deep drying oil, baking, and air fryer. I’ve experiemented them all in over time and played around with spices. After experiencing three methods, I love air fryer the most. But I want to help you to make them in three methods so you can take the opportunity to try them yourself too. Or even just work with what you have in your kitchen.
