SERVES 3

These mini tofu frittatas are packed with flavour, easy to make, and perfect for lunchboxes or a savoury snack.

Ingredients

To serve (optional)

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease a 6-hole 7.5 cm × 4.5 cm silicone muffin tray.
    Place the tofu, soy milk, nutritional yeast, arrowroot flour, tahini, garlic powder, vegetable stock powder, turmeric, and a pinch of salt and pepper into a food processor. Process until smooth.
  2. Spoon the mixture into the muffin tray, dividing evenly between the holes. Top each frittata with ½ tablespoon of pesto and swirl in with a skewer to create a marbled effect.
  3. Bake for 35 minutes, or until set and the tops are golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
  4. Pop frittatas out of the muffin tray. Serve with a dollop of cashew cream and a drizzle of chilli oil, if using.

Tip

These are also a great school snack! They’ll fit right into your lunchbox and are just as delicious when eaten at room temp.
