Ingredients
- 10 sheets Rice paper sheets
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, mix olive oil, nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper to form a paste.
Step 3
Place a single rice paper sheet into a shallow bowl filled with water, submerging it briefly until it's soft but not overly soggy.
Step 4
Lay the softened rice paper on a cutting board and use a sharp knife or scissors to cut it into smaller strips or shapes of your choice, reminiscent of pork rind sizes.
Step 5
Gently brush both sides of each rice paper strip with the spiced paste, ensuring an even coating.
Step 6
Arrange the prepared rice paper strips on the baking sheets, leaving space between each piece.
Step 7
Bake for 8-10 minutes in the oven, watching closely to prevent burning, until the rice paper is crispy and golden brown.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. The rice paper will continue to crisp as it cools.
Step 9
Serve your vegan crispy baked 'pork rinds' as a snack on their own or with a favorite dipping sauce.
