This recipe details how to make 'bac'un bits' from textured pea protein (TPP), a high-protein vegan alternative to textured vegetable protein (TVP).

Instructions

To a sealable container add: olive oil, hot sauce, vinegar, soy sauce, maple syrup, paprika, and salt, shake well to mix.

Add your TPP to the marinade and shake well, coating and soaking it in the sauce.

Place it in the fridge to marinade for a minimum of 20 minutes and up to an hour.

Preheat oven to 350F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Spread your marinated TPP mixture across the baking tray and bake for 15 minutes, or until browned and crispy around the edges.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool.

Bac’un bits will become crispier once they have cooled completely, but you can use them straight from the oven if desired.

Enjoy on anything and everything!
