Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups cooked chickpeas, drained (reserve the liquid)
  • 1 cup cubed extra-firm tofu
  • 1 tbsp miso paste
  • 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 2 tbsp aquafaba
  • 1/2 cup almond meal
  • 3 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp salt (optional)

Method

  1. Pulse the chickpeas, tofu, and miso in a food processor until crumbly.
  2. Add the oat flour and 2 tbsp aquafaba, and pulse to a textured (not smooth) dough.
  3. In a shallow bowl, mix the almond meal, sesame seeds, nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, and salt for the breading.
  4. Shape the dough into small nugget-sized pieces, dip in the remaining aquafaba, then coat in the breading.
  5. Air fry at 375°F for about 12 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp.
  6. Whisk the tahini, mustard, vinegar, maple syrup, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika together for the dressing, and serve alongside.
