If you want to make the crispiest tofu ever, then you need to make these tofu nuggets! I’ve tried many tofu recipes and none of them got me tofu that's this crispy! But not only that, this tofu is full of flavor. Crispy, warm, flavorful, and way healthier than store bought! Everything you could ask for in one delicious vegan nugget. If you want to impress some non vegan friends/ family members than make these tofu nuggets over the holidays. (No one will even know there's a plain block of tofu hidden inside these nuggets!) What you will need: Tofu:  For best results use extra firm. Cornstarch: This helps makes the vegan nuggets super crispy. If you are gluten-free, use arrowroot powder.  Soy sauce:  To flavor the tofu.

 Plant based Nutella  Unfortunately plant based Nutella still isn't a thing here in the U.S, but the good news is you can easily make your own. Nutella is basically a chocolate  hazelnut spread with tons of sugar inside.  You can s pread it on toast, put it inside croissants ,  on top of strawberries or just eat it off the spoon!  Why is Nutella not vegan?

Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Chips  Plant Based Milk- For this recipe I'm adding soy milk but you can use any plant based milk. Cacao Powder  Salt: To intensify the chocolate flavor!

If already roasted, roast for 6 minutes to loosen the skins and make it easier to blend. Step 2: Remove  the s
