Ingredients
  

Instructions
 

  • Press your tofu using a tofu press or wrap it in a kitchen towel and leave a heavy object on top. Press for a minimum of 15 minutes, or longer to get crispier tofu.
  • Put your soy sauce in one shallow bowl and the nutritional yeast, cornstarch and steak spice in another. Mix to combine.
  • Slice your tofu into 8-9 strips then dunk in the soy sauce and then into the nutritional yeast mixture.
  • Place in your air fryer and air fry for 13-16 minutes flipping halfway through. The cooking time will depend on how thick or thin you cut your tofu.
  • If using the oven bake at 400f for 25-30 minutes flipping halfway though.

Notes

Nutrition Facts Use Half one the amount of soy sauce & nutritional yeast as there is usually leftover. However it is necessary to make more to be able to dunk your tofu. I usually save the remainder for next time!
