Ingredients
- 1 block Extra Firm Pressed Tofu (400g)
- ¼ cup Soy Sauce
- 3 tbsp Maple Syrup
- 2½ tbsp Liquid Smoke
- 2 tsp Onion Powder
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
- ½ tsp Pepper
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
Instructions
- First Press your tofu by wrapping it in a kitchen towel or paper towel and pressing it for 30 minutes to release the liquid.
- While the tofu is being pressed prepare the marinade with the rest of the ingredients. Just add all ingredients into a bag or container that will fit all of the tofu.
- Slice the tofu into strips that resemble bacon strips. The thinner the tofu, the crispier the tofu bacon will be.
- Place onto a baking tray and bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes flipping halfway through. At the halfway point (10 minutes) when you have flipped the tofu, spread the extra marinade on with a brush then return to the oven to bake for another 10 minutes.
- Enjoy on salads, on a TLT (tofu, lettuce, tomato) sandwich, or on its own!
