Made with just 10 ingredients and ready in 25 minutes, this Easy Air Fried Tofu recipe is a fuss-free recipe that results in crispy and tasty tofu that can be served as a side dish with your favorite sauces, in salads, and veggie bowls.

Ingredients

1 block Extra Firm Tofu
2 tsp Coriander powder
1 tsp Smoked Paprika
1/2 tsp Cayenne powder
1/2 tsp Onion powder
1/2 tsp Garlic powder
1/4 tsp Ground Turmeric
1/4 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Salt (you might need to add a 1/2 tsp more, for taste, when this is done)
3 tbsp Arrowroot powder
1 tsp cooking oil spray

Instructions

Remove the tofu from the container it comes in and drain it. Then, set it on a kitchen towel.
Add the arrowroot powder, coriander, smoked paprika, cayenne, onion powder, garlic powder, turmeric, cinnamon, and salt to a bowl and mix well.
Then, cut the tofu block into tofu cubes or tear it apart into bite-sized pieces (like I did). Tearing the tofu gives it more ridges and nooks for the arrowroot and spices to stick to, making this tofu even more crispy).
Add the tofu into the bowl with the arrowroot powder and spices and toss it so the pieces of tofu are well coated.
Add the tofu to the air fryer and spray with any cooking oil spray you have.
Air fry the tofu at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes on one side. Using a spatula, carefully toss the hot tofu over, and air fry for another 10 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
When done, remove the tofu from the air fryer and let it sit for about 2-3 minutes. Then, enjoy it with your favorite sauces, dips, or chutney. My favorite dip for tofu cooked this way is a combination of honey mustard and BBQ sauces!
