Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons Kosher salt
• 2 teaspoons Smoked paprika
• 1 tablespoon Nutritional yeast
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Coconut sugar or brown sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Liquid smoke flavoring

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, combine the kosher salt, smoked paprika, nutritional yeast, onion powder, garlic powder, and sugar. Stir until evenly distributed.

Step 2

Add the liquid smoke flavoring in small drops to the dry mixture. Stir thoroughly after each drop to ensure the liquid is absorbed evenly and doesn’t clump.

Step 3

Continue mixing until the liquid smoke is fully incorporated and the mixture has a uniform consistency.

Step 4

Once combined, spread the mixture on a plate or small baking sheet to air dry for 10-15 minutes, ensuring there is no remaining moisture.

Step 5

Transfer the dried bacon salt to an airtight container or spice jar for storage.

Step 6

Use as a seasoning to add bold, smoky, bacon-like flavor to plant-based dishes, roasted veggies, or even popcorn.
