Hot Honey Tempeh Tenders

We are obsessed with these hot honey tempeh tenders! These oil-free, air-fryer crispy tenders taste so good that you must try them yourself. Check out vegmeg.com for all the details. Thanks @vegan_meg for this amazing recipe! 

Ingredients

• 8 oz package of Tootie’s Tempeh
• 1 cup flour
• 2 TBSP cornstarch
• 1 cup soy milk
• 1 tsp salt, split
• 2 cups cornflakes, pulsed
• 3/4 cup agave
• 1 TBSP chili paste
• 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1 TBSP lime juice

Instructions

1. Slice tempeh into 4 portions and trim the edges to resemble tenders. In a bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, soy milk, and 1/2 tsp of salt. In a separate bowl, add crushed cornflakes.
2. Dip each tender into the batter, then coat in cornflakes. Air fry for 15-20 minutes at 400 degrees F, checking every 5 minutes until golden and crispy.
3. While tenders are in the air fryer, prepare the hot honey sauce. In a bowl, whisk together the agave, chili paste, cayenne pepper, 1/2 tsp salt, and lime juice. When tenders come out of the air fryer, toss them in sauce and serve!
