this is vegan bacon almost a year ago horay Foods who made probably one of the best vegan Bacons that you could buy went out of business it was a sad day but being an incredibly cool company they actually released their recipe they posted it right on Instagram which most companies don't do that they go out of business and your product is gone for good I love that they did that so today I'm finally getting around to making it now I've made a lot of bacons and I've made a lot of them using starch one of
the original Bacons that I made was rice paper bacon and Essen the hoay foods is making kind of like a rice paper it's using rice flour it's similar but not the same cuz they're getting the flavor into the actual rice flour now I've made something similar to that with wheat starch bacon almost the exact same process in a very very similar recipe it's actually really similar to the way that I make my vegan pepperoni which if you haven't tried that yet that is really good too it's one of my favorite pepperonis I'm pretty sure that
vegan pepperoni recipe is in my book but anyways I already get this process I already understand it it's really simple so so there's not a whole lot of testing involved here I'm going to actually going to tweak their recipe just a little bit because there's a few things that I wanted to add to just kind of like up the flavor a bit so I I'll tell you what I'm adding first I'm going to start off with two bowls I'm going to add a half of a cup of rice flour to each half2 cup tapioca starch
in each one and 1/2 cup of coconut oil melted coconut oil now we're just going to whisk these together to make kind of like a paste now we just need two cups these are going to be for your flavoring we're going to to do two different sides it's like two different colors here one is going to have 3/4 of a cup of hot water and the other is going to use 3/4 of a cup of beet juice again using the same brands that they recommended toss this into the microwave clean up the beet juice spill
so I don't stain my cutting board do you know that beet juice is actually good to like lower your blood pressure and also helps maintain like good cholesterol levels and also helps people with like maintaining weight levels I it's really cool Beach juice is really good okay that got hotter than I expected it to okay oo now they use like a Umami powder I'm actually just using mushroom seasoning and they did a tablespoon in each one now it says a tablespoon of liquid smoke in each one but I I just have to double check that
cuz that seems like a lot one tablespoon Liquid Smoke you know what I I'm not doing that I'm going to do a half of a tablespoon cuz even a half of a tablespoon is Smokey doy I mean like that is like super Smokey again I'm not making this to test their bacon I've had their bacon it's good I'm making this just for my own fun today we also need a tablespoon of maple syrup now like I said I'm going to add a few things I've always put a little Shake of garlic powder in My Vegan
bacon I think that makes a difference little smoked paprika maybe an eighth of a teaspoon in each one now on theirs they did about a teaspoon of salt and they didn't have any black pepper but I am going to add black pepper so just a few minor tweaks that's really all it is little stir now we just need to bring back our flowers I'm going to add our red side into the clear just so you can see how red that comes out it's crazy how red it comes out we'll pour the brown mixture into the
white now it's probably going to come out pretty pale I'm hoping now I'm going to preheat my oven for about 350° which is going to take about 10 minutes that's plenty of time for today's sponsor did you know that your temperature at night can have one of the greatest impacts on your sleep quality if you wake up too hot or too cold I highly recommend you check out Miracle maid's bed sheets inspired by NASA Miracle maid uses silver infused Fabrics that are Thermo regulating so you can sleep at the perfect temperature all night long every

coconut oil grease up a baking sheet now they used a half of a sheet pan I'm just going to use a whole sheet pan and then we're going to take about two cups of the mixture they did a cup onto a half so that's why I'm doing two I'm just kind of evenly spread this around pretty stoked about that they did I think it was 11 evenly space lines so I don't know if I should do 22 let's one two my Bacon's going to look a little different than theirs and that's okay we're just going
to add some dots Locker's going to bark cuz we just got a delivery then I'm just going to use a butter knife to kind of pull through the dots which creates the marbling effect which I will say they they they really nailed that when it comes to like the marbling I mean the look of that is pretty cool like pretty pretty freaking cool okay so now I'm just going to toss this into the oven for 5 to 7 minutes until the sheet is bubbling okay I think this looks pretty good I'm pretty proud of the
way that came out um it's not 100% like uh like their bacon but you know what I mean I I think it's going to be pretty good I do think this middle portion is probably going to be a tad thick but that's okay does smell like bacon it is really crazy we're just going to slice this down the middle seems to be slicing pretty good ooh the middle might not be but and then we're just going to slice these into you know 11 well I don't know how many slices of bacon here I must wish
I had like a pizza slicer but boom that is our first slice pretty stoked about that so yeah that fat is still on there all of that like coconut oil fat it's still there now what they did was they wrapped it in parch paper going to do the same thing and froze it okay so we're going to toss these in the freezer I want these Frozen before I cook them that way that coconut oil can solidify uh and then we're going to cook these up and see what Monica has to say okay so these have
been frozen you can see the coconut oil is thickened up it's it's they're pretty firm now at this point so I'm just going to toss a pan on the stove on the heat get it nice and hot and toss these in the pan and they start to sizzle up pretty quickly and you can actually kind of hear these are sizzling so I'm just going to continually turn these over until they get like a nice crisp I might have went a little too far just like I normally do but I will say the kitchen smells like
bacon it is wild the smell that is coming from these so I'm going to cook these up toss them onto a wire rack to crisp up and now let's see what Monica has to say here we go baby what do you think what do you do you notice anything I mean it is it supposed to it's bacony doesn't it smell like bacon I mean it really does it also looks like it I know it does it really does okay so let's start with the thinner pieces at the end and they get thicker as they go
so boom cheers m m I like this I know me too mhm that's really good very good tastes like bacon it's a little bready yeah it is a little Brey mhm but I like it still good crunch good crisp wonder where the bre is taste mhm I think if you get down towards the end it's not as bready okay like I should eat on this side well just like the thinner portions of it so I mean if it was in something though there is kind of like the chewy s it doesn't have any of like
the starch stickiness that you would normally get I did just get a chewy bite yeah there is like some chewi to it that's really good and there is some crisp maybe like more crisp than what you would normally want but if this was like on its own it's really good I will say the extra Liquid Smoke probably would have been fine I think I could have used maybe a little bit more Liquid Smoke so that was my bad saying to limit it but let's go up with like a thicker that one's about the same thickness
grab like that one there you just want to see Cheers Cheers I'm I'm going to go a little thicker there we go cheers M I like this better I know me too too this is definitely more bacony yeah because it's crisp but it has a little bit of that like fatty softness feel yep exactly mhm it's like chewy bouncy mhm it's really good so the thicker stuff is what you want to go with I was thinking it was going to be the thinner but really honestly the thicker the thicker stuff is much better I love
this it's a great snack me too yeah this is awesome I'm all about this we're going to finish all of these yeah where would you put this God there's so many but I put this up there like an eight I really like this one might even give it a nine yeah I'm right with you I'm I'm going to do like a nine it's going to be near the daon bacon mhm above the broccoli bacon for me for sure it's above rice paper bacon I've never been a rice paper bacon fan I like the rice paper
bacon but it's been so long since I've had it you need to try it again to compare it correctly but like this in a sandwich or in a burger or something like that would be excellent or on a salad mhm oh man mhm yeah this is super good I'm happy about it this isn't 100% a recreation of the hoay foods bacon but it's pretty Dam close it's good stuff yeah and I like my little additions mhm there we go yay yeah bacon yeah that was easy bacon was an easy test mhm hm
