Vegan Tofu Bacon

2021-05-13

Jump To Recipe Print Recipe

There are many vegan bacon recipes: rice sheets, seitan, tofu, and yuba. In addition, there are recipes that almost accurately recreate the strips of fat in the original bacon – what can I tell you, a vast and delicious selection!

I prefer a recipe with tofu; It has a combination of softness and crispiness at the same time, which is perfect for pasta like Spaghetti Carbonara – it also blends excellently in sandwiches and vegan egg dishes.

More important – the excellent taste of this vegan bacon does not betray the ease of preparation.

We start by cutting the tofu into cubes or slices and soaking it in a marinade for several hours – preferably overnight (it keeps in the fridge for about a week).

Bake the tofu with the marinade over medium-low heat for about 20 minutes – let it cool for a few minutes – that’s the whole story.

.Serve this Tofu Bacon with Spaghetti Carbonara, Vegan Fried Egg, burgers, Pizza, or even as a snack

This Tofu Bacon is excellent in a sandwich: your favorite bread, Vegan Mayonnaise, crispy lettuce, tomatoes, red onion rings, Tofu Bacon, and you have a delicious lunch!

Enjoy and let me know how it turned out ❣️

  • Mix all the marinade ingredients well in a bowl and transfer to an airtight storage container
  • Add the tofu, shake or flip the container occasionally. Soak for at least an hour, and better overnight to absorb flavors.
  • Preheat oven to 160 degrees Celsius (320 F); Line a baking tray with baking paper, place the tofu; Sprinkle the rest of the marinade over the tofu.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes until brown and slightly crispy; Make sure the tofu doesn't not burn; Check after about ten minutes, and mix for evenly baking
  • When ready – remove from the oven and let cool for about five minutes. The tofu bacon will turn more crispy.
Notes
You can leave the marinated tofu in the refrigerator for up to a week – the taste of the bacon will improve.
