Tofu Bacon
Servings: 3
Ingredients
- 6 tbsp soy sauce
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
- 1-1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 3/4 tsp liquid smoke
- 15 oz extra-firm tofu pressed and drained
Instructions
- Marinate the tofu: In a small bowl mix together the soy sauce, maple syrup, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and liquid smoke. Add the tofu to a sealable container or bag (make sure the container or bag is secure enough that you can flip it upside down without any liquid leaking out). Pour the marinade over the tofu and gently turn the container or bag to coat the tofu. Let marinate for a minimum of 15 minutes or up to 3 days in the fridge. If you are marinating it for a long time, I like to flip the container every now and then to ensure it marinates evenly. The longer you marinate it, the more flavorful it will become.
- Oven method: preheat your oven to 425℉ (220℃). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper. Lay the tofu in a single layer on the baking sheet, using two baking sheets if needed. Bake for 7 – 12 minutes, keeping a close eye on it, until the tofu has reduced in size and is golden brown. It will crisp and get chewy as it cools.
