  • Place the chipotle pepper mixture in a bowl and add the cauliflower florets. Coat the florets with the chipotle pepper mixture thoroughly.

  • Spray the cooking oil lightly on the cauliflower florets.
  • Choose Air Fryer, set the temperature to 400 °F, and set the timer to 12 Minutes. Press Start.
  • Once the air fryer is preheated, open the air fryer basket and place cauliflower florets into the basket. Close the basket.
  • Once the air fryer shows the "Turn Food" sign, open the basket, flip the cauliflower florets, and continue to cook.
  • Once the cooking cycle is done, open the basket and remove the cauliflower florets onto a serving plate.
  • Serve warm with your preferred dipping sauce. Enjoy!
