INSTRUCTIONS
(3-4 small servings)
Cut tofu into your favorite configuration (my toddler likes fingers).
Spread flour on a small plate or flat dish. Beat egg equivalent in a
shallow dish. Mix remaining ingredients in shallow dish. Get out your
nonstick baking sheet and a wire rack if you have one. (Optional: my sheet
does better with a few drops of oil spread with fingers) Set up your
assembly line : tofu, flour, egg, crumbs, and rack. Turn each piece of tofu
in the flour to cover, then into the egg, then crumbs, and then to the
rack. When you're done, chilling helps set the coating, but you can skip.
Then just bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes until crisp.
Serve with sauces! My toddler dips his in applesauce (also known as "happy"
sauce to him).
Variations: marinate tofu in soy sauce and drain (reduce salt in coating),
freeze tofu first, try other herbs/spices, try flavored crackers or bread
crumbs, etc.
