Keto Air Fryer BBQ Roasted Cauliflower

This Keto air fryer cauliflower is smothered in BBQ seasonings before being baked until tender and golden. This is a simple Keto side dish, low in carbs but high in flavor! The perfect accompaniment to midweek meals.

Keto Air Fryer BBQ Cauliflower Ingredients

Our easy Keto air fryer cauliflower is diced into bite sized florets and par boiled until fork tender. The cauliflower is then coated in a low carb BBQ sauce, prepared with passata (tomato sauce) tamari sauce, smoky paprika, maple flavored syrup, earthy cumin, garlic powder, sweet cinnamon and a hint of mustard powder. The cauliflower is then air fried until crisp and golden.

Keto Air Fryer Cauliflower Tips

To make the best Keto air fryer cauliflower, it is best to par boil the cauliflower first. This means that once air fried, the cauliflower is tender in the middle but perfectly crisp on the outside. We have used a little low carb maple syrup to sweeten our BBQ sauce, however you can swap this for a teaspoon of erythritol if preferred.
