Tofu Chips!!!



Baked Tofu Chips | Recipes | Yummy.ph - the Philippine online recipe database

What's a healthier alternative to potato chips? These baked tofu munchies! Tofu is a good source of protein, has zero cholesterol, and makes for one great snack.

Serves 6

canola or olive oil for greasing
2 blocks tofu or local tokwa

For the seasoning
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon Spanish paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
pinch of cayenne powder

 Set oven to very low heat, about 250ºF.

 Line a cookie sheet with foil and lightly brush with oil for greasing. (Click to see How to Line and Grease a Pan)

3  Slice tofu into very thin pieces, no more than 1/8-inch-thick.

4  Layer the tofu slices on the prepared sheet. 

 Lightly mist the slices using cooking spray. (Alternatively, you can fill a spray bottle with oil and adjust the nozzle to set on mist.)

 Bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.

 Make the seasoning: Mix together salt, Spanish paprika, onion powder, pepper, and cayenne powder  in a bowl. Sprinkle on tofu chips only as needed. (Watch the sodium! Season sparingly and taste as you go.) 

Flavor tip:  The next time you prepare a batch, season it differently! We recommend these duos: lemon pepper seasoning and cayenne powder for a slight tang; turmeric powder and toasted sesame seeds for some Asian flavor.
