Take note
Before we begin, please note that this guide assumes you are already familiar with vegan cooking and have a basic understanding of kitchen safety. Also, make sure to check for any food allergies or dietary restrictions of your guests. Now, let's get started!

1

Prepare the vegan wings

First, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven is heating up, take a large bowl and combine 2 cups of vital wheat gluten, 1/4 cup of nutritional yeast, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon of onion powder. Mix well.

2

Make the BBQ sauce

In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of ketchup, 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon of liquid smoke, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.

3

Form the wings

Now, add 1 cup of water to the dry ingredients in the large bowl from step 1. Mix with a spoon until it forms a sticky dough. Knead the dough with your hands for a few minutes until it becomes firm and elastic.

4

Bake the wings

Take small handfuls of the dough and shape them into wing-like pieces. Place the wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each wing. Bake them in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and firm.

5

Coat the wings with BBQ sauce

Remove the wings from the oven and brush each one generously with the prepared BBQ sauce. Make sure to coat all sides evenly. Return the wings to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes to allow the sauce to caramelize.

6

Assemble the platter

Once the wings are cooked and sauced to perfection, transfer them to a serving platter. You can garnish with freshly chopped cilantro, green onions, or sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation. Serve alongside your favorite vegan dipping sauces and enjoy!
