Broccoli Wings

Yield 1 -2

I adapted this recipe from Hot For Foods Buffalo Cauliflower Wings - there are tons of awesome recipes for this concept, but I’m not the biggest fan of cauliflower. So I thought it would be fun to test out on broccoli, since it’s similar in size and texture. It tastes way better too - in my personal opinion.

Ingredients

  • 1 bag Broccoli Florets
  • 1 cup Gluten-Free Flour
  • 1 cup Water, filtered
  • 3 tbsp Hot Sauce, Sriracha
  • 2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • Pink Salt, to taste
  • Black Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Start by prepping your broccoli. I bought mine already in florets - so that was super handy. Just wash, dry and cut into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Measure and whisk together all your batter ingredients, it should be similar to pancake batter in consistency.
  3. Preheat your oven to 445 degrees F.
  4. Dip each floret and let the excess run off by tapping the side of your bowl. Lay flat on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. Repeat till everything is coated.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through if you wish (not vital to do so though).
  7. Remove from the oven and toss in sauce of choice. I did bbq sauce, garlic parmesan and a spicy mango chili sauce. All store bought, but the garlic parm. was just earth balance butter with garlic, nutritional yeast and pink salt.
  8. Once coated, transfer back to your baking sheet and continue at 445 degrees F for another 5-10 minutes.
  9. Serve hot with dipping sauce of choice. I went with roasted red pepper hummus and my cheezy sauce, recipe here.

      You can definitely use any sauce you’d like. Whatever flavor you’re wanting, it’s easy to make some at home!

    Yum! Would any kind of flour work here? Brown rice, chickpea?

    I want to make this! For this taco recipe, was the broccoli dipped in the garlic Parmesan sauce? If so, how much butter & nutritional yeast was used?

      For the taco recipe I just added spices to the batter, I didn’t dip the “wings” in any sauce. If you would like to make the wings and then coat them in a parm. sauce you could do about 3 tbsp melted butter + 1 tbsp nutritional yeast and 1 tsp of garlic powder. Hope this helps, you can use whatever measurements you’d like – just have fun with it!

    Going to try this tonight. Just curious, has anyone tried using coconut or any non dairy milk instead of water?

      I hope you enjoyed it! I can’t say I’ve ever used a non-dairy milk for these before. Let me know if you give it a try.

    Very delicious! I usually make baked cauliflower wings, but I love how crisp the broccoli stayed. Looking forward to trying more of your recipes.
