If you know how delicious buffalo wings are, then you should be pretty excited that there’s a plant-based version too. Check out this buffalo tofu that is so easy to make and won’t leave you feeling heavy.
Buffalo tofu bites. What? Yes, the vegan version of Buffalo wings. Plant-based people can have there own take!
These bites are super easy to prep. Even my meat-loving peeps love these and let’s face it… they aren’t artery clogging and gut busting like their carnivore counterpart. The tofu can be pressed and cooked up easily earlier in the day with the sauce made right before you serve. Toss the bites and sauce in the pan to warm and you are good to go! So let’s get started.

Ingredients
- 1 block of firm or extra firm tofu (pressed)
- 1/4 cup of Frank’s Red Hot
- 2 tablespoons of vegan butter
- Olive oil
Instructions
- Begin by pressing the water out of your tofu block. I’ve described/photographed how to do that before, check out the link above this recipe box. I press my tofu for at least 30-45 minutes. Once done, slice into cubes or strips. Heat some olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Place the tofu in carefully and brown on all sides. Remove and place on a plate with a paper towel to drain whatever oil is remaining.
- While the tofu cools, place a small saucepan over a low flame. Add your hot sauce and vegan butter. Whisk to combine the sauce until blended and heated through. Add the tofu and gently coat/heat through the cubes. Place on a platter or bowl to serve.
