Nutritional Yeast Tofu

Super quick and easy to make in an oven or air fryer, this crunchy, golden, seasoned tofu is ready to grace a multitude of dishes or be enjoyed as a tasty snack. Recipe from A Virtual Vegan. Serves 4.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 block (about 14 oz /400 grams) extra firm tofu , pack sizes vary. It doesn't have to be exact.

• 4 tablespoons nutritional yeast

• 1 tablespoon cornstarch

• ½ teaspoon fine sea salt

• ½ teaspoon black pepper

• ½ teaspoon garlic powder

• ½ teaspoon onion powder

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Open the package of tofu. Drain off any excess water. Do not press.

2. With your hands, tear the tofu into irregular bite sized chunks (so there are more nooks and crannies for the seasoning) and place in a bowl.

3. Add the seasonings and toss well to coat. Cook immediately. Don't let it sit.

4. To air fry - Grease the bottom of your air fryer basket with a little brush of oil. Add the tofu to the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook at 400°F (200°C) for 15 to 20 minutes or until super crunchy and golden, tossing halfway.
   To bake - Spread out on a lined baking tray and bake at 425°F (218°C) for 30 to 35 minutes or until golden and crispy.

5. Store leftover nutritional yeast tofu in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days. It's great enjoyed cold or can be reheated in an air fryer or oven for a few minutes. 350°F for 10 mins in an oven or 350°F in an air fryer for 4 to 5 minutes.
