  3. Place beaten eggs into a small bowl then dip the cauliflower florets in the eggs and then coat it with the breadcrumb mixture
  4. Transfer the breaded cauliflower to a baking sheet (I line with cooling rack too so they get extra crispy)

Notes

*Store leftovers in fridge for 5 days or freeze these for 2 months. I usually warm up from fridge in oven or stovetop to crisp but microwave works too
