20 mins prepServes 2
The perfect solution to anyone craving a tender! These are perfectly salty, crispy and protein-packed. Tofu is so versatile, and when you can season it how you want, you can't lose!
1. Drain the extra firm tofu, cut it into thick wedges (6 pieces total), and dap off any extra moisture.
2. In one bowl, add your wheat flour along with the seasoning blend (garlic powder, onion powder, mustard powder, paprika, smoked paprika, vegan chicken seasoning, salt, and pepper). In another bowl, add your vegan yogurt and 1/4-1/3 cup water. If using vegan milk and apple cider vinegar, mix both together and let them thicken for 5 minutes.
3. Dip your tofu in the wheat flour first, then into the wet mixture, and repeat, ending with dipping into the wet mixture.
4. Add the coated tofu to a bag of pretzels, mash the pretzels, and gently toss your tofu until all sides are coated.
5. Add your tenders to an air fryer, spray with oil, and cook at 400°F (200°C) for 12 minutes! Enjoy!
If baking, bake at 400°F (200°C) for 25 minutes, turning halfway through.
