Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the vegan bacon slices to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until crispy. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add a bit of vegan butter and toast the bread slices until golden brown on both sides.
While the bread is toasting, mix the ketchup, mayonnaise, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl to make the sauce.
Spread one tablespoon of vegan butter on two slices of the toasted bread.
Spread the sauce mixture evenly over the other two slices of toasted bread.
Place two lettuce leaves on each of the buttered slices of bread.
Add four slices of cooked vegan bacon on top of the lettuce on each buttered slice of bread.
Close the sandwich by placing the sauced bread slices on top of the bacon, sauce side down.
Slice each sandwich in half and serve immediately.
