  3. Prepare cauliflower florets by washing cauliflower and separating it into smaller florets. Don't make florets too small, as they will burn easily.

  4. Allow cauliflower florets to dry prior to coating in bread crumbs.

  8. Roast cauliflower florets in the oven for 25 minutes. Carefully test one floret if it is ready: soft and crunchy.

    If you have bigger pieces of cauliflower, you may want to keep them in the oven for another 2 minutes or more. Always test for readiness prior to any increase of cooking time.
