Instructions
Make the air fryer tofu

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
- Step 2
In a large bowl, toss the cubed tofu with olive oil, soy sauce, cornstarch, garlic powder, and onion powder until evenly coated.
- Step 3
Arrange tofu in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Air fry for 13–15 minutes, shaking halfway through, until golden and crispy on the edges. Set aside.
Make the peanut sauce
- Step 4
In a medium bowl or jar, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, maple syrup, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger.
- Step 5
Slowly whisk in warm water until the sauce reaches a smooth, pourable consistency.
Cook the noodles + vegetables
- Step 6
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the noodles according to package instructions. Drain and toss with the peanut sauce.
- Step 7
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the veggies (and 1 tablespoon oil if needed).
- Step 8
Cook for 4–6 minutes, stirring often, until heated through and slightly tender but still crisp.
- Step 9
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet with the veggies and toss to combine.
- Step 10
Serve with the crispy air fryer tofu topped with green onions, sesame seeds, and chili crisp if desired.
Notes
- Step 11
For 4 people, I like to use 2 blocks of tofu for a higher protein meal. That being said, 1 block of tofu also works well for 4 people!
