Bbq Baked Seitan
Ingredients
- 1 cup vital wheat gluten
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 1 cup veggie broth
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1/3 cup bbq sauce of choice
Preparation
Combine all dry ingredients
Add in the wet ingredients except BBQ sauce and give a gentle stir to combine
A dough should begin to form
With your hands gently knees into a dough ball (do not over kneed
This step should just take less than a minute to do)
Transfer dough to a lined baking sheet
Flatten and spread dough out until it is inch thick
Then place in a preheated oven at 350F for 25 minutes
Remove from oven and brush both sides with your favorite BBQ sauce
At this stage you can either grill or rebake your seitan
For equipment purposes I went with baking this again for another 10 mins
At the very end of baking to help char ends a little I broiled it on high for 2 minutes
Once removed from the oven
Allow to cook slightly before cutting it into strips as desired
BBQ sauce: 1/2 cup tomato paste, 2 tbsp brown sugar, 2 tbsp blackstrap molasses, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar, 3/4 cup vegetable broth, 2 tbsp smoked paprika (if you have some liquid smoke definitely add a splash for extra smoky flavor), 2 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder
Add ingredients except salt and apple cider vinegar to a sauce pan and bring to a low simmer
Cover with a lid and cook on low heat for 10 minutes
Allow sauce to cool completely then add in salt and apple cider vinegar and stir well
Pour into a container and store in the fridge
