Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large stems king oyster mushrooms
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 nori seaweed sheets
- 8 vegan bacon slices
- 8 toothpicks
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the king oyster mushroom stems into pieces roughly 1 inch thick, resembling shrimp in size.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together smoked paprika, garlic powder, soy sauce, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil.
Lay the mushrooms in the marinade, making sure each piece is well-coated. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, cut the nori sheets into strips as wide as your mushroom slices.
Wrap each marinated mushroom slice with a strip of nori sheet, then cover with a slice of vegan bacon, securing with a toothpick.
Place the wrapped mushrooms onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the vegan bacon is crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Enjoy as an appetizer or snack along with your favorite dipping sauce.
