Air-Fried Umami Tofu Bites
Crispy air-fried tofu cubes tossed in a savory nutritional yeast and tamari coating, offering a satisfyingly golden crunch in every bite.
INGREDIENTS
8 ounce extra-firm tofu
1 tablespoon tamari
0 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
5 tablespoon nutritional yeast
0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
0.5 teaspoon onion powder
0.25 teaspoon smoked paprika
0.25 teaspoon sea salt
0.25 teaspoon black pepper
PREPARATION
Remove the tofu from the packaging and press it between heavy plates and paper towels for at least 15 minutes to remove excess moisture.
Cut the pressed tofu into 1-inch uniform cubes and place them in a medium mixing bowl.
Drizzle the tamari and toasted sesame oil over the tofu cubes, tossing gently to ensure every piece is lightly coated.
In a small bowl, whisk together the nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the dry seasoning mixture over the tofu and toss until the cubes are thoroughly encrusted.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Arrange the tofu in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching for maximum crispness.
Air fry for 15-18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the bites are golden brown and firm.
Serve immediately as a high-protein lunch or snack.
