# Crispy Air Fryer Tofu Recipe

Cuisine: western · Time: 20 minutes · Servings: 3

## Ingredients

- 1 block extra firm tofu (look for one that is vacuum-packed so you don’t have to press it! I get mine at Trader Joe’s but Target has it as well. See note 1)
- 2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 1/2 tablespoons nutritional yeast (see note 2)
- 2 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce (more as needed)
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil or olive oil
- 2-3 teaspoons all-purpose spice blend (see note 3)
- your favorite sauce for serving (see note 4)

## Steps

1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk the nutritional yeast, cornstarch, soy sauce, oil, and spices into a batter. It should be fairly loose and runny. If your batter is too thick (like a paste), add 1-2 teaspoons more soy sauce as needed to loosen it.
2. Tear the tofu into chunks and place them directly into the batter bowl. Using a wide spatula, gently toss the tofu in the batter until it’s entirely coated.
3. Air fry at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes (see Note 5). Stop and give it a shake. And now air fry at 400 again for another 5 minutes until you reach your desired level of golden crispiness!
4. To serve, toss the tofu in your favorite sauce for a recipe (curries! stir fries! rice bowls!) or just pop these guys into some dipping sauce like a little nugget. Incredible.
