Eggplant Bacon Recipe.

Ingredients:

1 Medium Eggplant
2 TBSP Olive Oil
1 1/2 TBSP Tamari
1 TBSP Worcestershire Sauce
1 TBSP Maple Syrup
2 TSP Liquid Smoke
1 TSP Paprika
1/2 TSP Salt
1/2 TSP Garlic Powder
1/2 TSP Ground Black Pepper

Recipe Instructions:

Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Slice eggplant in half lengthwise then cut it in half lengthwise again so that you have 4 long slices.
Using a mandolin, slice eggplant sections into thin strips that resemble bacon in thickness or 1/8th inch thick and set aside.
Using a small glass bowl, combine the rest of the ingredients and whisk until combined.
With a brush, brush both sides of the eggplant slices with the sauce and arrange in a single layer on the baking sheets.
Sprinkle with a little extra ground black pepper if required.
Bake in preheated oven for 25-35 minutes or until the eggplant is a dark red color, seems dry and is a little crispy.
Remove from oven and let sit for 10 minutes.
Eggplant bacon can be used immediately, stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
