Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Step 2: Prepare the Batter
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, water, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Step 3: Coat the Cauliflower
Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, ensuring it’s fully coated.
Roll the coated florets in the breadcrumbs for a crunchy exterior.
Step 4: Bake
Arrange the coated cauliflower florets on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they aren’t touching.
Drizzle with olive oil or spray with cooking spray for added crispiness.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the cauliflower is golden brown and crispy.
Step 5: Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
