2 cups canned young jackfruit
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.25 teaspoon black pepper
0.5 cup plant-based milk
1 cup breadcrumbs
0.5 cup barbecue sauce
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Drain and rinse the jackfruit thoroughly ensuring no brine remains, then pat dry with a paper towel.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, whisking evenly.
- Gradually add the plant-based milk into the dry mixture while stirring until a smooth batter forms.
- Dip each piece of jackfruit into the batter, ensuring an even coat, then roll in breadcrumbs for a crisp texture.
- Place the coated jackfruit wings on the prepared baking sheet evenly spaced to ensure even cooking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, flip the wings, and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
- Brush each wing generously with barbecue sauce and bake for another 5 minutes to achieve a caramelized glaze.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before serving with your favorite dip or additional barbecue sauce.
