Ingredients
- 400 grams fresh green beans
- 10 slices vegetarian bacon strips
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash and trim the ends of the green beans. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, maple syrup, soy sauce, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Stir well to create a marinade.
Step 4
Place the green beans in a large mixing bowl and pour the marinade over them. Toss the green beans until they are evenly coated with the marinade.
Step 5
Take a small bundle of about 6-8 green beans and wrap a slice of vegetarian bacon around the center of the bundle. Secure the bacon slice with a toothpick if necessary to hold the bundle together.
Step 6
Place the green bean bundles on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat the process until all the green beans are wrapped.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetarian bacon is crispy and the green beans are tender.
Step 8
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the bundles cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm as a delicious appetizer or side dish.
