Crispy Baked Tofu

Baked tofu cubes that are seasoned with just three ingredients and come out golden and crispy.

Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
Servings: 3 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 block extra-firm tofu pressed and cubed
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  2. Toss the cubed tofu with the soy sauce, then sprinkle on the cornstarch and toss to coat.
  3. Spread the tofu in a single layer with space between each piece.
  4. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp on all sides.

Notes

Press the tofu well; less moisture means more crunch.
