4 cups cauliflower florets you can use pre cut broccoli or a heat of cauliflower
1 cup flour you can use gluten free flour or almond flour if needed
1 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup buffalo hot sauce
2 tbsp. butter

In a large mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients with a whisk. Add in butter whisk and whisk together until smooth.
If needed, break up the cauliflower into florets. Add cauliflower to the batter and use a spoon or spatula to thoroughly coat all of the vegetable pieces.
On a baking sheet with a cooling rack on top, place the batter coated cauliflower pieces to allow some of the extra to run off.
Working in stages, place cauliflower pieces into the air fryer basket. Don't overstuff the basket so that the air circulates well.
Set the temperature to 360 degrees and 18 minutes of cook time. Spray the top of the wings liberally with oil and close the lid. Around 12 minutes into cooking, flip the wings to ensure even cooking.
In a separate bowl, combine buffalo sauce and butter. Microwave buffalo sauce and butter until the butter melts. Stir to combine.
Remove wings from the air fryer and toss in the prepared wing sauce to coat.
