Vegify Baked Tofu

Ingredients:

  • 1 block (14 ounces) extra firm tofu
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon lite soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup Vegify
  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper , optional - makes it spicy!!
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Slice the tofu into 10 squares: Cut the tofu into 5 slices along the long edge, then cut each column in half to make squares (see note for variations). Lightly press each slice of tofu with a paper towel to remove some of the liquid.
  3. To make the marinade, stir together the vegetable broth and soy sauce in a shallow pan. Marinate the tofu in the vegetable broth mixture for at least 10 minutes.
  4. Prepare 3 bowls: one with the flour, one with Vegify and spices, and one with the eggs. Coat the tofu in the flour, then the eggs, then Vegify.
  5. Bake at 400 degrees F on the parchment lined baking sheet for 15 minutes. Carefully flip the tofu bites over, then bake for another 15 minutes. They're ready when golden brown and crispy.
