Servings 5
Ingredients
- 1 package Nasoya Super Firm Tofu, pre-pressed and ready to cook
- 3 apples
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- ½ cup apple cider
- 1 tbsp dijon mustard
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon pepper
- ¼ teaspoon ground sage or 1 teaspoon fresh sage, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Cut tofu into bite sized wedges. Arrange on prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 15 minutes and flip. Continue cooking for 15 minutes longer.
- While tofu bakes, core and slice apples. You can also peel the skin, if desired.
- Add apples to a large skillet and sauté over medium heat for 5-6 minutes or until apples just begin to soften. Add a tiny bit of water if apples stick. Transfer softened apples to a dish and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together apple cider, maple syrup, dijon mustard, salt, pepper and sage.
- After tofu has baked, pour apple cider mixture into the same skillet used to sauté the apples. Heat over medium for 1 minute, stirring to allow the mixture to better incorporate.
- Add tofu wedges to skillet and toss or spoon apple cider over tofu to coat. Continue to spoon mixture over tofu as it reduces and thickens to create a glaze. This will take about 5 minutes.
- Add the sauteed apples as the glaze thickens and toss to lightly coat. Once glaze has thickened fully, remove from heat.
- Serve with roasted or steam vegetables for a complete meal.
