Honey Garlic Air Fryer Tofu


This Honey Garlic Air Fryer Tofu recipe is perfect for a quick, weeknight meal. Pair it with rice and vegetables or add to your favorite salad. This can also be made in the oven!

Hi friends!

I’m pretty sure this Honey Garlic Air Fryer Tofu recipe hits two firsts for the blog – first tofu recipe and first air fryer recipe! If you don’t have an air fryer, don’t leave yet! This can also be made in the oven. 

I got my air fryer for Christmas and have found several things I enjoy making in it – vegetables, wontons etc but I have just recently started branching out a little more- my son and I even made steak in the air fryer for my husband for Father’s Day! This recipe is another product of that branching out. 

I’ve experimented with tofu a bit in the past and honestly have not fallen in love with it. This recipe has me changing my feelings. I’ve found that tossing in cornstarch and putting in the air fryer has given me the texture I enjoy most.

After the air fryer (or oven), all you have to do is whip up a quick sauce, and saute in the pan for 3-4 minutes. The cornstarch on the tofu will help the sauce thicken right up to coat the tofu pieces and boom! Ready to eat.

Here’s how you make it:

Honey Garlic Air Fryer Tofu

Honey Garlic Air Fryer Tofu with white rice and broccoli

This Honey Garlic Air Fryer Tofu recipe is perfect for a quick, weeknight meal. Pair it with rice and vegetables or add to your favorite salad. This can also be made in the oven!

  • Author: Lindsay
  • Yield: serves 34 1x

Scale
1x2x3x

Ingredients

1 (14 oz) block extra firm tofu
1/3 cup cornstarch
spray oil (I use avocado oil)
3 Tbsp soy sauce
3 Tbsp rice vinegar
23 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp fresh ginger
1.5 Tbsp honey
optional: sesame seeds, green onions, sriracha

Instructions

  1. Press tofu for at least one hour. I cut the block in half to make two thinner pieces, place on a plate, top with another plate and set a heavy skillet on top.
  2. Drain excess liquid and then cut into bite-sized cubes.
  3. Place in a bowl and toss gently with cornstarch.
  4. Preheat air fryer at 375 F for 5 minutes. Place tofu in the air fryer and spray lightly with oil.
  5. Cook in air fryer for 20 minutes, shaking every 5 minutes.
  6. In a small bowl combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger and honey. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed and mix well.
  7. Transfer tofu to a skillet and add sauce. Saute 3-5 minutes, stirring to coat all pieces in the sauce and let the sauce thicken.
  8. Serve with sesame seeds, sliced green onions and sriracha if desired.

Notes

If you don’t have an air fryer you can place the cornstarch coated tofu on a baking sheet, spray with oil and bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

That’s it! So easy and a great way to try out tofu. I’ve been enjoying it over rice and veggies but I’ve also been loving it on a salad. Current fav combo is mixed greens, tofu, candied pecans, apples, red onions and crumbled feta. Yassss.
