Ingredients
- 1 cup soy curls

Instructions
- Prepare the soy curls: Start by hydrating the soy curls in a bowl with vegetable broth for about 10-15 minutes, then drain and squeeze out excess liquid.
- Create the coating by mixing all-purpose flour, cornmeal, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, and nutritional yeast in a bowl.
- Coat the soy curls by dipping each piece into the plant-based milk followed by the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Air fry the soy curls: Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray, place the coated soy curls in a single layer, and lightly spray the tops. Cook for about 15 minutes, shaking halfway through.
- Serve and enjoy: Remove the crispy soy curls from the air fryer and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce or salad.
