If you’re looking for a new favourite crunchy snack, these Vegan Crispy Tofu Fingers are perfect. This recipe is one of my favourites and even the kids love these delicious, nutty Tofu fingers. You can serve this with any sauce you like – it goes beautifully with my versatile Green-Nut Butter Sauce, or you can pair it with any hot sauces or sweet chilly sauce, as well as mayo, ketchup and mustard. These Tofu Fingers are truly and honestly finger licking awesome!

Easy, delicious and packed with goodness, you can serve your Vegan Crispy Tofu Fingers with a salad, steamed or cooked veggies, with a veggie-loaded rice or with cauliflower rice if you’re looking for a more filling option. This recipe uses ingredients like corn flour and almond milk to make it gluten free and vegan, so everyone can enjoy these crispy fingers.

Here’s a Tip…

If you’re not a fan of nuts you can coat these delicious fingers in breadcrumbs, rolled oats or ground flaxseed instead. This recipe is gluten free and vegan, however, if you’re looking for other options you can coat your fingers in plain flour and egg instead. If you don’t like tofu or don’t have it in the kitchen, you can replace it with paneer or halloumi for added cheesy deliciousness.
