Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs. In a third bowl, combine the panko bread crumbs and olive oil.
Working one at a time, dip the cauliflower florets into the flour mixture, then into the eggs, and then into the panko bread crumbs. Place the coated florets onto the prepared baking sheet.

In a small bowl, whisk together the buffalo sauce and blue cheese or ranch dressing.
