Instructions
Preheat oven to 400F.
Cut your tofu bloc into desired size, we quartered it into even squares.
In a small bowl mix all of the maple glaze ingredients until well incorporated.
Place your tofu blocks on a lined baking sheet and brush on about 1/3 of the glaze. Bake for about 15 minutes and then flip and re-glaze with another 1/3 of the glaze and bake for another 15 minutes. Finally flip again and glaze with the remaining glaze left and bake for 10 more minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
While the tofu bakes prepare the brussels sprouts. Cut each sprout in half and set aside. Add sesame oil to a cast iron pan and place each sprout cut side down and season with some salt and pepper and cook for about 10 minutes or until golden brown. Add the button mushrooms and toss until incorporated and place a lid over them to steam for about 2 minutes. Then add soy sauce, maple syrup, and liquid smoke and toss. Put the lid back on a cook for about 5-10 minutes.
