Recipe for Vegan Peanut Noodles
These vegan peanut noodles are creamy, chewy, savoury, and crunchy from peanuts and veggies. This is like a healthy take-out noodle dish that you’ll want to make weekly it’s so good!
All you really need are some noodles of your choice (I recommend using soba/buckwheat noodles or rice noodles), a few simple ingredients for the sauce, a plant-based protein option and some veggies of your choice.
The recipe is vegan, dairy-free, fish-free and can be made gluten-free and soy-free.
Ingredients for Vegan Peanut Noodles
- Noodles (Soba or Rice Noodles)
- Edamame beans
- Bell Pepper
- Carrot
- Green Onion
- Sesame Seeds
- Peanuts
- Cilantro (optional)
Peanut Noodle Sauce:
- Peanut Butter
- Maple Syrup / Agave Nectar
- Soy sauce
- Sesame Oil

Feel free to use whatever vegetables of your choice and customize it to your liking!
- To make this recipe gluten-free, use a gluten-free soy sauce and gluten-free soba noodles
- To make this soy-free, use an alternative to edamame beans (such as chickpeas) and a soy-free soy sauce alternative
- If you don’t like or have lime juice, you can use lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, rice vinegar or white wine vinegar.
- Don’t have fresh ginger or peanut butter, use powdered ginger and use almond butter or tahini.
How To Make Peanut Noodles (Vegan)
1. To prepare your vegan peanut noodles, start by cooking the noodles according to the package instructions. And if your edamame beans are frozen, add them in with the noodles to cook them together.
2. While the noodles are cooking, chop the vegetables and get all the ingredients ready.
3. In a bowl, mix together the peanut butter and maple syrup (or agave nectar) first to help thin out the peanut butter. Then add the rest of the ingredients: soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, ginger and garlic powder. Mix well to create the peanut noodles sauce.
4. Once the noodles and edamame are cooked, drain and rinse thoroughly with cold water (my recommendation).
5. In a serving bowl, add the cold noodles, edamame and peanut sauce and mix well. Top with peanuts, bell peppers, carrots, green onion or any vegetables of choice! Highly recommend topping it with sesame seeds and/or cilantro too!
