Baked Buffalo Tempeh Wings- easy to make and packed with flavor, these tempeh wings make for the perfect plant-based appetizer or lunch! (soy-free and gluten-free option)

The first time we ever visited Asheville, we ate at a local vegetarian restaurant there called Rosetta’s. They’ve been in business for a while and serve up plenty of fantastic options but their tempeh wings have always had my heart. They’re so good, I have to get them every time we go back to Asheville, which is usually about 1-2 times per year. In other words, not enough! Once I developed the recipe for these crispy baked tempeh fingers, I knew they could easily be made into buffalo wings by slathering them in copious amounts of sauce. Because my tempeh wings are baked and Rosetta’s are fried, the texture is slightly different but honestly these are pretty darn close and so much better for you. Served with homemade cashew ranch (or blue cheese if that’s your thing) they make for one bangin’ game time appetizer. (more…)
