Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 block of firm tofu
  • 1 cup of flour
  • 1 cup of plant-based milk
  • 1 cup of breadcrumbs
  • 1 tablespoon of garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon of onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon of smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Press the tofu to remove excess moisture for better flavor absorption.

  3. Coat each piece of tofu in the flour mixture, then dip in the plant-based milk, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.
  4. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat to cover the bottom.
  5. Fry the nuggets for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Drain on paper towels and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

For a healthier option, the nuggets can be baked in the oven at 425°F (220°C) for 20-25 minutes instead of frying.
