Vegan Tempeh Bacon

 First time made Vegan Bacon. It tasted so good...!! Here the recipe... =)

Ingredients

• 5 ounces tempeh (2/3 a standard 8 ounce pack)
• 2 Tbsp maple or agave syrup
• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp cumin
• a dash of chili powder & onion powder
• 1 tsp soy sauce
• 1/2 tsp thick black pepper
• for pan: 2 tsp olive oil 

Preperation

1. Very thinly slice the tempeh. 
2. As thin as you can slice it without it falling apart.
3. Combine all ingredients in a shallow dish.
4. Soak tempeh in marinade for 1-2 minutes.
5. Turn saute pan on high, add 1-2 tsp olive oil. Lay the tempeh flat on skillet. One layer only. Drizzle a bit of excess marinade onto skillet-it should be sizzling a lot now.
6. Allow to cook for 1 minute, then flip. Allow to cook for another minute on other side-or until both sides are crisp and browned.
7. Lay cooked tempeh on parchment paper to cool. Sprinkle with black pepper and thick sea salt to taste. 

Enjoy your bacon... ^^
