Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
- Dip each cauliflower floret into the beaten eggs, then coat it with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the breadcrumbs.
- Place the breaded cauliflower florets on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and the coating is golden and crispy.
- Remove the breaded cauliflower from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing fresh lemon juice over the cauliflower.
