Ingredients
- 7 oz or 200 g oyster mushrooms
- 2 cups or 240 g vital wheat gluten (see notes)
- 1 cup vegetable broth (see notes)
- 4 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- neutral oil to fry
- vegan buffalo sauce to coat
Instructions
Chop Oyster Mushrooms
- Roughly chop the oyster mushrooms.
Make the Dough
- In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients and start kneading. Knead until the dough is firm and smooth and mushroom pieces are incorporated.
Cut and Shape the Wings
- Roll the dough into a log and cut into 1.5 inch (4 cm) pieces (you can also rip it apart). Shape them into wings.
Steam
- Place them into a food steamer or basket for about 30 min. Make sure there is space between the wings,as they will expand a bit after steaming.
Fry
- Heat a lug of neutral oil in a frying pan and fry the wings over medium heat for about 5 minutes each side or until golden brown.
Coat
- Coat the wings generously in vegan buffalo sauce. Serve with vegan blue cheese dip and a side of carrot and celery sticks. Enjoy!

Notes
- This recipe requires a food steamer. If you don't have one, you can use a steamer basket.
- Vital wheat gluten is available in grocery shops or on Amazon. You need it to create the "chicken" texture. Please don't try to substitute it with all-purpose flour, as it won't work!
- Serve vegan buffalo wings with extra vegan buffalo sauce, dip them in a vegan blue cheese dip, and serve a side of carrots and celery sticks for the ultimate wings experience! Other options include onion rings, potato wedges, vegan coleslaw, pretzel bites, waldorf salad, vegan mac'n'cheese, or even corn on the cob.
- Refrigerate them in the airtight container for up to one week.
- Keep them in the freezer for up to 3 months. Freeze them separately from the sauce. Thaw them in the fridge overnight and reheat in a pan, oven, or microwave.
