Vegan Buffalo Sauce Recipe
A vegan buffalo sauce using plant-based butter with a touch of savory spices and hint of maple syrup.
Serving Size 16
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup plant-based butter
- 1/2 cup hot sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
Instructions
- Heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt.
- Once the butter has melted, add the hot sauce, spices, and maple syrup.
- Bring to a simmer and heat for 4-5 minutes, so all of the ingredients blend together and create a rich, flavorful sauce.
Notes
Want it spicier? Use more hot sauce or try Frank's Xtra Hot Sauce.
Use medium heat. Vegan butter pops and spits and can burn on high heat.
Stir frequently to emulsify the mixture.
Simmer, don't boil. You just want the ingredients to come together, you don't need to reduce the sauce.
Adjust to your preferences. You can make it more or less spicy and more or less sweet.
Store leftover sauce in the fridge in an airtight container. The butter will solidify in the fridge, so when you use it next, warm it briefly in the microwave or in a small saucepan on the stovetop.
