Crispy Baked

This savory & crispy oven baked tofu is the best tofu recipe ever! Tofu is kind of controversial. I totally get it because some tofu is straight up disgusting. If it is not prepared properly it can be flavorless and mushy. But like any food, it can be made amazing with the right preparation and flavors.

This crispy tofu can convert almost any tofu hater. My secret to getting a good crisp is using arrowroot starch or cornstarch. In addition soy sauce, spice and yeast combo makes the tofu so flavorful. I could eat a block of this crispy tofu plain!

INGREDIENTS

1 block extra firm tofu - pressed and cubed

1 tablespoon avocado oil or other neutral oil

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon nutritional yeast

½ teaspoon paprika

½ teaspoon garlic powder

2 tablespoon arrowroot starch/powder or cornstarch

pinch salt and pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Add tofu to a bowl and toss with all ingredients. I recommended shaking the tofu to get it fully coated in the starched and spices.

Bake tofu on a lined sheet pan for 30-35 minutes or until desired level of crispness is reached.

Eat tofu alone, or add to whatever you want!
