These little baked squares are a seriously addictive snack — umami-rich, lightly sweet, and crispy at the edges in a way that makes it hard to stop at just one. The glaze brings together coconut aminos, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and warm spices like turmeric and ginger, creating a deeply savory-sweet coating that caramelizes beautifully in the oven. A thin paste of arrowroot starch and cassava flour acts as the binding layer between two sheets of nori, giving each square a satisfying firmness without relying on any egg-based binder whatsoever. That's the quiet genius here — the whole thing holds together through a clever combination of plant-based starches and coconut oil, so there's nothing to worry about on the egg-free front. The result is 12 crisp, lacquered little squares that feel almost like a gourmet snack shop find, but come together in your own kitchen with a handful of pantry staples. Serve them immediately for maximum crunch, or make them the centerpiece of a snack board where they'll disappear faster than you expect.
