Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (16 oz) package super firm, or extra firm tofu
- 1/3 cup plain plant based milk, or regular milk
- 1/3 cup all purpose flour, or gluten free all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 cup buffalo sauce, or more if desired (you can use bottled or homemade)
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees F. Pat your tofu dry and press, if needed. You can either cut the tofu into little bite sized pieces or you can tear it into chunks. I like to tear mine into chunks because it makes the tofu have more nooks and crannies for the sauce to get stuck in.
- To a large bowl, add the milk, flour and spices. Whisk together until you have a thick batter. Add the tofu chunks into the bowl and gently mix until all the tofu is completely coated in the batter.
- Pour the panko over the tofu and carefully mix together until the tofu is coated with the panko. The panko should stick pretty well to the tofu, but you can also use your fingers to press it on, if there are any parts of the tofu that are lacking in batter.
- Spray a large sheet pan with cooking spray and carefully dump the tofu onto the pan. Use your hands to spread the tofu out, making sure it’s in a single layer and not stuck together. Spray the top of the tofu with more cooking spray and place in the oven. Bake tofu golden brown and crispy, 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Remove tofu from the oven and add to a medium sized bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over and mix until tofu is completely coated with the sauce. Place back in the oven and bake for another 5 minutes. You can add extra sauce after you’ve taken the tofu wings out of the oven if you like. Serve buffalo tofu tofu with ranch or blue cheese dip and veggies.
