Crispy Baked Tofu Fingers
- 1 pound Firm Tofu
- 1/2 cups Bran Flakes Cereal
- 1/2 teaspoons Lemon Pepper Seasoning
- 3 Tablespoons Egg Whites
- 2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 1/4 teaspoons Pepper
- 1/2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
- Drain tofu and place in a tofu press until most of the water is out.
- If you do not have a tofu press, wrap tofu in a kitchen towel and place in a bowl topped with a heavy pot or can.
- Let it soak for 20 minutes.
- Remove from the towel and wrap in paper towel to soak up the rest of the moisture.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with cooking spray or parchment paper.
- While the tofu is draining, blend cereal in a food processor until it becomes a fine powder.
- Get 2 small bowls and place ground cereal in one of them.
- Add lemon pepper to cereal and mix until combined.
- In the other bowl mix, together egg whites, mustard, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- When the tofu is mostly dry, cut it into strips.
- I cut 8 strips crosswise and cut each of the 8 strips into 3 more strips for a total of 24 strips.
- You can choose the size of your pieces.
- You might need more coating if you make smaller pieces though.
- Coat each piece of tofu in the egg mixture and then roll in cereal mixture and place on baking seat.
- Repeat with remaining strips.
- Place in the oven for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Remove from oven and serve.
