These are a tasty, nutritious alternative to chicken fingers! I've eaten these when my family had Buffalo tenders, and I drenched them in Buffalo sauce and dipped in Ranch dressing.
Ingredients
- 2 packages firm tofu (I used 14 ounce packs)
- 1/2 cup nutritional yeast (you will not use it all)
- no-salt seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Cut each tofu block into 12 equal slices. Slice the block in half, then slice each half in half again--now you have fourths. Cut each fourth into 3 slices, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Lightly press slices with a paper towel--do not take all the water out, this will be what binds the nutritional yeast.
- Pour 1/2 cup nutritional yeast into plate. Coat each slice of tofu in nutritional yeast. Start with the edges then do the sides, this will minimize buildup on your fingers.
- Lay each slice on your prepared baking sheet.
- After all slices are coated, sprinkle liberally with your favorite no-salt seasoning.
- Bake in the oven, at 375 degrees for 30 - 40 minutes (depending on your desired crunch). You do not need to flip the slices during baking. You'll know they are ready when the edges are just starting to get brown.
- Let rest for at least 5 minutes before using a spatula to remove.
