Notes
You can use a small or large head of cauliflower, but regardless you'll probably have to air fry this in two batches unless you have a larger air fryer. You don't want to overcrowd the cauliflower in the basket so that it crisps up well.
Storing leftovers: Leftover cauliflower can be stored for 3-5 days in the fridge in an air tight container.
You can also store leftovers in the freezer for 3 months, and they'll thaw within a couple hours in the fridge.
