This Vegan BLT Sandwich with Coconut Bacon and Peaches is easy to make and delicious, takes only 15 minutes, and is the perfect meal to wrap up for lunch on the go! Recipe reprinted with permission from Vegan Yack Attack On The Go! By Jackie Sobon.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (180 degrees C, or gas mark 4), and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, place all the ingredients for the Coconut Bacon. Toss the mixture until everything is evenly coated, then spread it out in a single layer over the parchment paper.
Bake for 5 minutes, stir the bacon around, and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the coconut bacon is amber brown. If not using right away, store in a tightly sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks. Let it reach room temperature once you take it out to use it. While baking, continue to the next steps.
To Prepare BLT Sandwich:
Lay out the 8 pieces of bread, and spread roughly 2 teasp of vegan mayo on one side of each slice.
Layer 2 leaves of lettuce, 2 slices of tomato, 1/4 cup peach slices, 3 tbsp Coconut Bacon, and a pinch of black pepper on 4 of the slices.
Top with the remaining slices of bread. Serve, or wrap up for your lunch box!
Notes
Coconut Bacon - The recipe yields 1 cup of coconut bacon.Recipe Variations - I used spinach leaves instead of lettuce. I also used multi-grain bread and toasted the bread, allowed it to cool before preparing the sandwich.
