Air Fryer Honey-Sesame Cauliflower “Wings”

Prep: 25 minutes
Air Fry: 15 minutes • Serves: 8

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
5 large eggs
2-3/4 cups plain panko breadcrumbs
1 large head cauliflower, cut into florets (about 8 cups)
Nonstick cooking spray
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup less-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted

1. Line rimmed baking pan with parchment paper. In wide, shallow dish, whisk flour, salt and pepper. In separate shallow dish, whisk eggs; place breadcrumbs in third shallow dish. Dredge cauliflower in flour mixture, shaking off excess, then dip in eggs and breadcrumbs to coat; place on prepared pan and refrigerate.

2. Preheat oven to 300°. Preheat 3-quart air fryer to 400° for 5 minutes; spray cauliflower with cooking spray. In 3 batches, air fry cauliflower 5 minutes or until golden brown and crisp, turning once; transfer to second rimmed baking pan and keep warm in oven. Makes about 40 “wings.”

3. In small saucepan, cook garlic, honey, soy sauce, vinegar, oil and ginger 3 minutes or until slightly thickened, whisking occasionally; transfer ½ cup to large bowl. Add cauliflower to garlic mixture; toss.

4. Serve cauliflower sprinkled with onions and sesame seeds along with remaining garlic mixture.
