How to Make Honey-Roasted Cauliflower
Ingredients:
• 1 head of cauliflower, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 to 3 tbsp honey
• ½ tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
• Salt to taste
Instructions:
1️⃣ Preheat your oven to 450°F. High heat is key to getting that crispy, caramelized texture!
2️⃣ Prepare the cauliflower by cutting it into small, bite-sized florets.
3️⃣ Toss with olive oil in a large bowl, making sure each piece is evenly coated.
4️⃣ Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer. Overcrowding the pan will cause steaming instead of roasting, so give the pieces space!
5️⃣ Roast for 20-25 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through to flip the pieces. This ensures even browning.
6️⃣ Remove from the oven and immediately toss the hot cauliflower in a bowl with honey and red pepper flakes. Mix well so every piece gets coated in that sweet and spicy goodness!
7️⃣ Serve & enjoy! This dish is perfect on its own, as a side, or even tossed into grain bowls or salads.
Tips for the Best Roasted Cauliflower
🔥 Want extra crispiness? Let the cauliflower roast for an extra 5 minutes or broil for the last 2 minutes.
🌶 Like it spicier? Add a pinch more red pepper flakes or drizzle with hot honey!
🍋 Boost the flavor! A squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving adds a bright, tangy finish.
🧄 Garlic Lover? Toss in some minced garlic with the olive oil before roasting for even more flavor.
