These little tofu pieces offer a different appeal to tofu. I make these to add to salads, budda bowls, and over rice and vegetables. It is slightly sweet and spicy with a hint of cinnamon. It is super delicious and absolutely incredible. The brown sugar caramelizes on the tofu and makes such a yummy coating. It is a southern vegan spin on a dry rubbed bbq.
INGREDIENTS:
2 tbsp paprika
2 tbsp salt
1 tbsp chili powder
2 tsp cumin
2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 Block extra firm tofu, Pressed
DIRECTIONS:
- Wrap the tofu in a towel and place a slightly heavy object on top to press out the water. I use a large can of tomatoes. Let press for about 20 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350*. Line a sheet pan with a Silpat or parchment paper.
- When ready, cut the tofu into 1-inch cubes. Place in a bowl and toss about 3 tbsp or so of the spice mixture on the tofu and toss to coat evenly.
- Place the tofu into an even layer on the sheet pan and bake about 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
Add to your desired dish or eat as is along with rice and vegetables.

Hello Everyone!
Thank you so much for stopping by. Let me tell you a little bit about me. I am a mom of two, a stepmom of 1, two wild and silly pups, and I have the best husband in the world. I also have a love of cooking and baking. I am always in the kitchen finding new recipes to try, recreating old family recipes, and reminiscing about the old ways. I am vintage at heart and love all things old and cast iron. I love spending time with the family and pups and just going where life takes us.
I created my blog a few years ago with my youtube channel because I thought that If I shared a recipe, then people just might like to see just how the recipe is put together. I share all of my family recipes along with today's recipes. Whether it is old-fashioned recipes, sourdough, einkorn, desserts, sheet pan meals, or even crockpot meals, they are all absolutely delicious.
I spend hours, if not days, creating and dabbling with recipes to make sure they are the best for you and your family. All of my recipes are family tested and family-approved before they are ever posted to my blog or youtube channel.
Every now and again I will share some behind-the-scenes fun and chaos of our creations and family adventures. I hope you all stick around and join us here at The Southern Rustic and see what we cook up in my kitchen. You can find all of my social media information in the Contact/Donate OR the Social Media Accounts tab on my home page. There I have listed my Instagram pages, YouTube channel, Email, and other information so you can easily find everything in one place.
I hope that you all have a wonderful, wonderful day and I will see you soon.
Sam
