Ingredients
Method
- Combine baking mix, xanthan gum, salt, Mrs. Dash (or ½ tsp onion, ½ tsp garlic, dash cayenne, ¼ tsp white pepper), garlic, parsley, paprika, oregano and sugar in a small bowl. Mix, set aside.
- Combine ener-g egg replacer with ice cold water (the colder the batter, the crispier the cauliflower). Add 2 tablespoons of the CFL seasoned starch to the ener-g egg replacer batter.
- Add the toasted breadcrumbs to the remaining dry starch mixture.
- Dip each floret into the ener-g egg replacer batter and then the seasoned CFL mix.
- Fry in hot oil (375) for about 3 minutes.
- For the sauce: 120 gm (1/2 cup) mayonaise [92 mg]; 15 gm (1 tablespoon) yellow mustard [24 mg]; 1/2 tsp. garlic powder [7 mg]; 1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar; 42g (2 tablespoons) honey [4 mg]; Salt and pepper, to taste; Combine above in a small bowl. The dipping sauce is .64 mg/gm
Notes
If you do not have toasted lp breadcrumbs on hand, you can add 10 gm crushed cornflakes or even ground up gluten free pretzels – just adjust the phe. It also works with just the seasoned starch, but we prefer it with a little more texture.
Reader Q&A:
Q: Hi, Do you need a deep oil fryer for this recipe or can it be done in a frying pan with a bit of oil? Or in the oven? Thank you for your help A: Hi Nicola,
You can definitely fry in a pan/pot with a few inches of oil. You could probably bake if you spritz with olive oil and bake at a high temperature, but not sure they will be as crispy. (They do reheat nicely in oven or air fryer).

Q: Can I make seasoning mix myself? A: sure
Q: Can they be frozen successfully? A: yes
Q: Will cooking in an air fryer instead of a deep fryer alter the end results? A: I have heated fried and frozen KFC in air fryer, but have not just air-fried. I would recommend trying one piece deep fried and then spritzing some with oil and air frying -- that way you know how it should taste and can make a comparison. -- Brenda
Q: how do I translate grams to tsp or Tbsp or do I need to weigh each ingredient? Thanks. Can't wait to try this A: There is a toggle button at the top of the ingredient list that is units (tsp/tbsp/cup, etc) or grams. Hope you enjoy!
