Ingredients
  

  • 4 portobello mushrooms, cut into ⅛ in strips

Marinade

  • ¼ cup cup low sodium soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 ½ tsp liquid smoke
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp white miso paste

Bagel & More

  • 4 bagels of choice, toasted
  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • 4 lettuce leafs
  • vegan mayo or vegan cream cheese
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a shallow bowl or baking dish whisk together soy sauce, liquid smoke, olive oil, maple syrup, paprika and miso paste.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms into the marinade and gently toss to cover each piece fully.
  • Place directly on the wire rack, and into the air fryer at 390° for up to 10 mins, flipping halfway. (Every air fryer is different, so keep an eye on the mushrooms to see if they need more, or less time.)
  • Assemble your sandwiches by spreading mayo or cream cheese on each side of the bagel, lettuce, a tomato slice, salt, pepper, and ¼ of the vegan mushroom bacon. Cut in half, and enjoy!

Notes

Oven baked instructions:
Place on a baking sheet and bake for 15-25 mins at 425 degrees. Check halfway and continue cooking to your desired level of crispiness. 
To make your mushroom bacon even crispier in the oven:
Place bacon on an oven safe wire cooling rack. Place the wire rack on top of a baking sheet covered in parchment paper. This will allow more air flow to help dry out and crisp up the mushroom bacon. 
I have tried both and HIGHLY recommend cooking using the wire rack for max crispiness.
