Ingredients:

For the sauce:

  • ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten free)
  • ¼ cup honey (or agave or maple syrup for strict vegan)
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 tsp finely minced fresh rosemary
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • a few grinds black pepper
For the cauliflower:
  • One large head cauliflower
  • ½ cup flour (I used brown rice flour, but I have seen similar recipes where regular all purpose flour was used)
  • ½ cup milk of choice (I used almond milk)

 

Method:

For the sauce:

  • Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a bowl and whisk together. Set aside.
For the cauliflower:
  • Preheat your oven to 450°F, and spray a baking sheet with oil or cooking spray.
  • Cut the cauliflower into florets. The smaller they are, the faster they will cook and softer they will get.
  • Whisk together the flour and milk in a bowl.
  • Toss the cauliflower in the batter until thoroughly coated.
  • Arrange the cauliflower on the baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until slightly less done than you want them.
  • Remove from the oven and pour the sauce over the cauliflower.
  • Return to oven for another 5 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and gently flip and toss the cauliflower in the sauce on the sheet to coat.
  • Return to the oven for another 5 minutes.
