I came up with this recipe when I wanted my Hawaiian burger. I had already gone plant-based so, meat was out of the question. So I adapted my original recipe to suit my needs and have never gone back. It packs a lot of flavors and is super delicious.
It is an incredible spin on the Hawaiian burger indeed.
INGREDIENTS:
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp chili powder
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
3/4 cup organic pineapple juice
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup water
1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp sesame oil
2 tbsp cornstarch or arrowroot flour
1 block pressed extra firm tofu ( cut into 1/2 in thick slices)
DIRECTIONS:
- In a large bowl combine the garlic, chili powder, red pepper flakes, pineapple juice, soy sauce, water, brown sugar, and both oils. Whisk together until well combined and the sugar is dissolved.
- Add the tofu slices and toss to coat evenly. Let the tofu marinate for about 1 hour.
- Preheat your oven to 425*
- Place the tofu slices on a Silpat lined sheet pan in an even layer. Cook for about 12 minutes on one side until golden then flip the tofu over and cook for another 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
- In a saucepan pour the sauce in and add the cornstarch and whisk together until the cornstarch is dissolved. Turn the heat to medium-low and cook until thick. This takes about 10 minutes. Let the sauce sit for about 10 minutes before brushing over the tofu or you can dip the tofu into the sauce.
- Place the tofu on a bun and add your desired toppings. I like to add butter lettuce and tomato, pineapple slice and grilled veggies.
I like to serve with sweet potato fries. However, you serve these little burgers they will be a big hit.

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
