| Vegan BLT with Avocado |
So maybe this doesn't taste exactly bacon but it sure is a lot close than you would expect. I am now pretty obsessed with tempeh bacon. It makes a fantasic vegetarian and vegan B.L.T.
Makes 2-3 servings
Ingredients
3 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
1 tsp. liquid smoke
1 tsp. tomato paste
1 tsp. brown sugar
1/2 tsp cumin
1-2 Tbsp. water
1/2 package tempeh, thinly sliced (the thinner the crispier they'll be)
Oil for brushing
Method
To make the marinade, whisk all the ingredients, except tempeh, in a small bowl. Give it taste and make any adjustments. Now gently dip each slice of tempeh in the marinade. Lay in a shallow dish and pour or the remaining marinade over top. Refrigerate for at least an hour (if you can do it overnight they will be even more tasty).
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
Lay tempeh slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (this worked much better than directly on a greased baking sheet). For extra crispness: mix a little oil with the left over marinade and brush on the slices. You can also skip the oil and just brush the marinade. Bake 8-10 minutes, flip over and brush again. Bake another 8-10 minutes, or until crispy and browned.
