I wish I could copy this !
Will definitely try these!
Great, let us know how it goes 🙂 Roxy (So Vegan)
Made these tonight. Perfect texture. Loved using the corn flakes but they didn’t really have any flavor. I followed the recipe exactly. Maybe marinade the tofu first?
Made this tonight. The family raved! I fried instead of baked for extra crispy texture. Will definetly make again! Thanks!

Please can you tell me if I should press the tofu?
Hi Rachel, Yes you should press the tofu a little to get rid of the excess water. Thanks, Roxy (So Vegan)
I made these nuggets and they are very tasty. My family loved it. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful recipe. October 27,2017
Can you pre-prepare and free after baking them?
