In this recipe, cauliflower florets are tossed in batter and baked in the oven until they have a perfectly crispy coating. Halfway through cooking, they're coated in a spicy sauce and then returned to the oven to let all the flavors can sink in. Serve these Buffalo bites the traditional way, with celery stalks and cool vegan blue cheese, for dipping.
