Description

This ridiculously easy tofu scrambles requires only a few pantry staple ingredients and NO specialty salts, yet it still has that rich, eggy flavor! Ready in 7 minutes tops, this recipe will show you that tofu really can do it all- pan fry for a soft and fluffy tofu scramble that somehow resembles creamy eggs perfect alongside toast!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or cooking oil
  • 1 block firm or extra firm tofu
  • 1/2 cup (120 mL) dairy free milk of choice
  • 1 tbsp miso paste
  • 1 tbsp cashew butter or almond butter*
  • 2 tsp soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 2 tsp ground mustard powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp sea salt


Instructions

  1. Prep: Read through the list of ingredients and make sure everything is stocked up. 
  2. Cook the tofu: Heat a medium skillet with olive oil on medium heat. Tear the tofu block into 1/2 sized torn pieces and place the pieces into the skillet to begin to cook.
  3. Make the batter: While the tofu is cooking, whisk together the remaining ingredients from the almond milk down. 
  4. Pour: Cook the tofu, stirring occasionally, for about 3 minutes on medium heat. Then pour in the batter and sauté the tofu in the batter for 3 minutes, until the mixture begins to absorb into the tofu. 
  5. Plate: You can cook down the liquid more for firmer tofu scramble, or serve after a few minutes of cooking. Top with more salt and pepper to taste, along with any fresh herbs, and enjoy!

Notes

Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container and in the fridge for up to 5 days. 

Nut free: Use tahini in lieu of cashew or almond butter.
