    Description

    This is the spicy wing sauce most commonly used to make cauliflower wings. It's a classic! I used Frank's RedHot sauce but you can use your favorite hot sauce.


    Ingredients

    Units Scale
    • ⅓ cup hot sauce
    • ¼ cup olive oil
    • ½ teaspoon vegan Worcestershire sauce
    • ½ teaspoon maple syrup

    Instructions

    1. Combine the hot sauce, olive oil, vegan Worcestershire sauce, and maple syrup in a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat.
    2. Continue to simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly. Remove from heat and toss with a third of the cauliflower wings. Bake the wings as directed above.
