• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted (1/2 stick)
• 3 large egg replacers (e.g., flax or chia eggs)
• Confectioners’ sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions

1. Mix crumbled tofu, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract in a blender until smooth.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and egg replacers. Add melted butter and stir until combined.
3. Gradually pour dry ingredients into the blender with tofu mixture and blend on low speed until just combined (be careful not to overmix).
4. Cover dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours to allow gluten to relax.
5. Preheat oven to 375F (190C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
6. Scoop dough into balls, about 1/4 cup each. Flatten slightly and bake for 18-20 minutes or until edges are lightly golden.
7. In a large bowl, combine sliced strawberries with granulated sugar (about 2 tbsp per cup of berries). Let it sit for at least 15-20 minutes to allow juices to release and strawberries to soften.
8. To assemble, place a shortcake on a serving plate, top with a spoonful of strawberry mixture, and repeat. Dust with confectioners’ sugar if desired (but let’s be real who needs it? This dessert is perfect as is).

This Silken Tofu Strawberry Shortcake is a game-changer: the creamy tofu adds an unexpected richness to the classic shortcake, while fresh strawberries bring that quintessential summer sweetness.
