written by Air Fryer Recipes | July 28, 2026

Ingredients

1 head cauliflower cut into florets
8 tablespoons buffalo sauce
1 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Extra buffalo sauce for serving and dip of your choice.

Directions

Cut cauliflower into florets on a cutting board. Wash and drain florets in a colander and dry with paper towels.

Preheat Air Fryer to 400 degrees.
Add the florets to a large bowl and combine the buffalo sauce and melted butter.

Sprinkle on the cornstarch and toss to ensure all the florets are coated evenly.

When the air fryer is hot, arrange the cauliflower florets in a single layer on the tray. Leave space around florets for even cooking. You will likely have to cook them in 2 batches depending on the size of your air fryer.

Cook at 350 degrees for 8 minutes and flip. Cook for an additional 7 minutes or until the florets reach desired texture.

Serve immediately with extra buffalo sauce and dip of choice and parsley garnish if desired.
