Hand on heart I have been vegan for over 3 years now and I have not once in that time craved meat. When I turned vegan I didn’t jump straight to the meat substitutes because I was basically teaching myself how to eat again. So that meant preparing meals completely plant based without the need of meat like substitutes, but I was aware of them. As time has gone on I have experimented with things like veggie sausages, tofu and other soy products and even tried to recreate with veggies. These bbq cauliflower bites are just one of the creations that are delicious, saucy and so simple to make with not a chicken wing in sight. I promise you will enjoy….

4.coat each piece of cauliflower in the batter.

5.tap off any excess batter and place onto the greaseproof paper lined tray.

6.bake for about 15-20 mins turn them over half way and bake until tender.

7.while they are baking in a bowl add your bbq sauce or hot sauce & coconut oil heat and mix together, this can be done in the microwave or on the hob.

8.dip each piece of cauliflower in the sauce until coated then place back onto they tray.

9.put them back in the oven and bake for another 10-15 minutes.

10. i recommend highly leaving them in that little bit longer as this makes them even more crispy on the edges.

once done allow them to cool slightly before serving.
