Recipe Notes
This recipe calls coconut aminos. But you can substitute 1/2 teaspoon vegan worcestershire sauce if you prefer. I recommend this brand. Either option is great!
Melted vegan butter works great in this recipe and has the same flavor profile and texture as real butter.
This recipe is perfect for vegan buffalo wings, or vegan buffalo cauliflower bites. Both can be made in an air fryer or regular oven.
It’s quite a bit different than vegan bbq sauce. Buffalo sauce is more of a spicy sauce, where bbq sauce is more tangy.
This dairy free buffalo sauce will last in the fridge for up to 1 week.
