I dreamed this up to make a delicious proteiny breakfast for my food-allergy kid, but won over the carnivorous don't-feed-me-rabbit-food husband as well. Easy to do a batch and freeze a bunch.

Steps

90 mins

1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
2

Press tofu to get as much water out as possible. Leave it to drip for up to 30 minutes.
3

Cut tofu into 1" cubes and put them in a big bowl.
4

Add the olive oil, honey or maple syrup, and soy sauce and toss the tofu to coat.
5

Spread the tofu on a large baking sheet with rims (it will give up a fair amount of water).
6

Bake for 45-60 minutes. Once you see that the cubes are getting golden (~25 minutes in), flip them just once with a spatula. Cubes are finished when most of them have a uniform golden appearance and they are starting to get brown on the edges.
7

If desired, let the cubes completely cool on the tray and then put them in a freezer bag to use gradually. I serve a few each morning to my son for breakfast, but occasionally steal a cup or two to add to a stir fry.
