29/10/2015Looks good! I’d like to know if you can make that without tofu? My husband says he’s allergic to tofu
Can’t wait to make it.
Thanks much,
Phyllis

29/10/2015The tofu forms a binder that helps the loaf set. You could try substituting plant milk blended with 2 tablespoons of flax meal and left to set for a while. Let me know how you go!
