Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Crispy Jackfruit Wings
  1. Begin by draining and rinsing the canned green jackfruit. Slice into wing-sized pieces, about 2-3 inches long, and toss with cayenne, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and crushed black pepper.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the seasoned jackfruit on a lined baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway. Alternatively, air fry for about 5 minutes.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine flour, plant milk, baking soda, and salt to make the batter.
  4. Dip each piece of jackfruit into the batter, then roll in remaining flour.
  5. Heat canola oil in a skillet over medium-high. Carefully fry the coated jackfruit for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  6. Toss the fried jackfruit wings in your favorite sauce and serve immediately.
