Ingrédients

1 lb tofu, extra firm

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated

1 tablespoon maple syrup

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 clove garlic, minced

2 teaspoons sesame seeds

1 tablespoon green onions, sliced

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into 1-inch cubes.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, maple syrup, rice vinegar, and minced garlic.
Add the tofu cubes to the marinade, gently tossing to coat them evenly.
Let the tofu marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 1 hour for more flavor.
Spread the marinated tofu cubes evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the tofu.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, turning the tofu halfway through, until they are golden and crispy on the edges.
Garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
