Coconut Bacon - eh... what?
Took a little road trip a few weeks ago to Ursa Minor Bakehouse in beautiful Ballycastle, and was treated to awesome sourdough toast with COCONUT BACON - which is not bacon, is completely vegan AND incredible!
I’d honestly never heard of the stuff, so I did a little digging and made some of my own when we got home. It’s super easy, takes about 15 minutes and uses only a few ingredients.
Perfect as a snack watching Netflix documentaries, in vegan BLT sambos, or on top of avocado and toast.
Here’s how you can give it a try!
Pop 100g coconut flakes in a mixing bowl
Add a little soy sauce, smoked paprika, liquid smoke (honestly optional), a squeeze of maple syrup or agave nectar, salt n pepper, & mix it all together
Roast in oven on medium heat for 10 - 15 mins turning regularly as theres a fine line between crispy and burnt
Allow to cool for 10 mins and use as suggested above
Enjoy!
