Vegan Bacon
Bacon can be part of a plant-based diet. Well, at least this one can. We will make extremely crispy Vegan Bacon with the perfect combination of smoky, sweet, and salty. It takes just a few minutes.
Ingredients
Bacon:
- 6 pieces of rice paper
Marinade:
- 3 tsp Deliciou "Original Bacon Seasoning" alternative: 1 1/2 tsp. paprika, 1 1/2 tsp. nutritional yeast & ½ tsp. garlic powder
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- ½ tsp liquid smoke
- ½ tbsp maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) top and bottom heat.
- Cover one baking tray with parchment paper.
- Whisk together all the ingredients for the marinade.
- Place one sheet of rice paper over another, dip it into a bowl of water for a brief moment to soften it slightly. Then with a sharp knife, cut the rice paper into 3-4 cm large strips.
- Now dip the strips into the marinade. Make sure they are covered nicely on all sides with the marinade. Place them on a baking sheet. Whisk marinade from time to time to keep it from separating.
- Brush the strips with the leftover marinade. The strips must be well coated with the marinade. Otherwise, they taste too much like rice paper.
- Place the strips in the preheated oven and bake them for 7-8 min.
- Keep an eye on the strips while baking because they may burn quickly. In this case, remove them immediately from the oven.
- Enjoy the strips in burgers, with scrambled eggs, or just plain.
Notes
- The level of crispiness should depend on how you want to use the bacon. Very crispy bacon is extremely well suited for burgers. However, for scrambled eggs, you might like your bacon a bit softer. Adjust the baking time according to that.
