Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. (2 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Place mayonnaise in a large zip-top bag. Add cauliflower florets; seal the bag and shake gently to ensure each floret is evenly coated. (5 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

In another large zip-top bag, combine bread crumbs and grated Parmesan cheese. Add half of the mayonnaise-coated cauliflower to the breadcrumb mixture. Seal the bag and shake well, ensuring each floret is generously coated. Spread the breaded cauliflower in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining cauliflower and bread crumb mixture. (10 minutes)

04

Step
35 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until the cauliflower is tender and beautifully golden brown, approximately 35 minutes. (35 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or dried herbs (such as oregano or thyme) to the breadcrumb mixture.
Ensure the cauliflower florets are relatively uniform in size for even cooking.
For a crispier result, consider broiling the bites for the last few minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.

    I didn't have seasoned breadcrumbs, so I added some Italian seasoning to plain breadcrumbs. Worked great!

  • Mercedes Fay

    These were surprisingly delicious! My kids devoured them.

  • Rex Miller

    Next time, I might try using panko bread crumbs for a crunchier texture.

  • Emmanuelle Stehr

    Great recipe! Easy to follow and a hit at my party.

  • Earlene Waelchi

    I used an air fryer instead of the oven and they came out perfectly in about 20 minutes.

  • Jaydon Nitzsche

    My cauliflower was a little wet after coating in mayo, so the breadcrumbs got soggy. I'll pat it dry next time.

  • Meghan Sipes

    I added a pinch of garlic powder to the bread crumb mixture for extra flavor.

  • Dorris Weimann

    Baking time was perfect. They came out crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

  • Charlotte Stiedemannsipes

    Try serving these with a marinara dipping sauce!
