Method

  1. 1

    Preheat your air fryer to 325°F.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, mix 1 cup vital wheat gluten with the nutritional yeast, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder.

  3. 3

    Add 1 cup water and stir until a dough forms. This dough is your vital wheat gluten.

  4. 4

    Break the vital wheat gluten into small, bite-sized pieces.

  5. 5

    Air fry the vital wheat gluten at 325°F for about 15 minutes. Go a few minutes shorter for softer bites or a few minutes longer for crispy ones.

  6. 6

    Toss the hot bites in the queso and buffalo sauce, or serve the sauce on the side for dipping.

Good to know
  • Shake or flip the basket once halfway through so the bites cook evenly.
  • Any sauce works here: BBQ, teriyaki, or hot sauce are all great.
  • Leftover bites keep in the fridge for several days. Re-crisp them in the air fryer before saucing.
