Ingredients

  • 350 g ~12 oz organic extra-firm tofu
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter (or almond butter, sunbutter, etc.)
  • 3 tablespoons organic gluten-free tamari
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1- inch fresh ginger grated
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce (or more!)
  • 3 tablespoons water

Instructions

  • Press the tofu to get as much water out as possible. Cut into 1-inch cubes.
  • Mix the remaining ingredients in a shallow bowl. Dump in the tofu cubes and toss to completely coat with the sauce. Cover the bowl and place in the fridge to marinate for 1 hour or longer. (Please don’t skip this step! Overnight is even better.)
  • Preheat the oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Spread the marinated tofu on the lined baking sheet along with other vegetables of choice (I love sweet potato, squash, zucchini, and broccoli). Bake for 25-30 minutes until it gets crispy around the edges. Enjoy!
