For this vegan bacon recipe, marinated tofu slices are used instead of bacon to make a smoky, savory, and crispy alternative. Great for making sandwiches, salads, or breakfast plates taste better!

Ingredients: 1 cup soy sauce. 2 tablespoons liquid smoke. 1 tablespoon maple syrup. 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast. 1 teaspoon smoked paprika. 1 teaspoon garlic powder. 1 teaspoon onion powder. 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper. 1 block extra-firm tofu, pressed and sliced thinly.

Instructions: Put soy sauce, liquid smoke, maple syrup, nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a shallow dish. Mix them together with a whisk. Add the tofu slices to the marinade and make sure that each one is covered. Leave it to sit for at least 30 minutes, or better yet, leave it overnight. Warm the oven up to 190C 375F. Put parchment paper on the bottom of a baking sheet. Place the tofu slices that have been marinated in a single layer on the baking sheet. The tofu should be baked for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping it over once or twice, until it is brown and crispy. Take it out of the oven and let it cool down a bit before you serve it. Have fun with your tasty vegan bacon!
