Can I freeze these cauliflower bites?

Absolutely, Freeze them after air frying when completely cooled. Just pop them in a single layer on a baking sheet first (so they don't stick together), then transfer to freezer bags. When cravings hit, reheat frozen bites directly in the air fryer at 375°F for 5-6 minutes - they'll come out crispier than microwave reheating.

How do I make them extra crispy?

Two tricks: First, make sure your florets are bone-dry before coating - pat them aggressively with paper towels. Second, give them a quick spritz of cooking spray before air frying. That extra bit of oil works magic for achieving that perfect golden crunch.

Can I make these ahead of time?

You bet, Prep the coated florets up to 4 hours before cooking and keep them refrigerated on a parchment-lined tray. The coating actually sticks better after resting. Just add 1-2 extra minutes to the cooking time since they'll be cold from the fridge. For more make-ahead ideas, see this make ahead quinoa salad jars recipe .
