Hey everyone! So, last week I was trying to come up with a quick and easy weeknight dinner. I'd been craving something flavorful and satisfying, but I also didn't want to spend hours in the kitchen. That's where these amazing Spicy Peanut Plant-Based Meatballs came into the picture! They are seriously addictive... I may or may not have eaten half the batch before taking any pictures. Oops!
These aren't your grandma's meatballs—unless your grandma was a super cool, spice-loving vegan chef! The combination of creamy peanut butter, fiery sriracha, and savory soy sauce is simply irresistible. Plus, they're incredibly versatile. Serve them over rice, in a salad, on top of noodles—the possibilities are endless!

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This is crucial for getting perfectly cooked meatballs.
- If using a food processor, pulse the plant-based meat until it's finely crumbled but not pureed. You want some texture!
- In a large bowl, combine the crumbled plant-based meat, breadcrumbs, peanut butter, soy sauce, sriracha, ginger, garlic, and onion powder. Mix everything together until it's well combined.
- Add the chopped scallions and cilantro. Mix gently—you don't want to overwork the mixture.
- Shape the mixture into 1-inch meatballs. This is easier than it sounds! Just roll the mixture into balls between your palms.
- Place the meatballs onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup a breeze.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the meatballs are golden brown and cooked through. They should be firm to the touch.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy! (Or devour immediately. I won't judge!)
📝 Notes
- Adjust the amount of sriracha to your preferred spice level.
- Feel free to add other vegetables or spices to customize the flavor.
- If the mixture seems too wet, add more breadcrumbs, one tablespoon at a time.
- For extra flavor, marinate the plant-based meat in soy sauce for 30 minutes before cooking
