Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Drain and press the tofu to remove excess moisture.

Cut the tofu into tenders or strips.

In a bowl, whisk together honey, mustard, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt.

Coat the tofu strips in the honey mustard mixture until well covered.

Place the bread crumbs in a shallow dish.

Dredge each tofu strip in the bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

Arrange the coated tofu tenders on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Drizzle olive oil over the tofu tenders for added crispiness.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
