Notes

  •  Cut the florets into similar sizes so they cook evenly.
  •  Make sure the cauliflower is completely dry before seasoning for better browning.
  •  For extra crispy cauliflower, avoid overcrowding the baking sheet.
  •  Add chili flakes or cayenne pepper if you prefer a spicy version.
  •  Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container and reheated in the oven or air fryer.
  • For a richer flavor, finish with grated Parmesan or toasted pine nuts.
