Vegan Pepperoni Recipe

Step 1

In a large bowl, whisk all the dry ingredients to combine well.

Step 2

In a small bowl whisk all the wet ingredients to combine well. Now pour the wet ingredients into the large bowl of dry ingredients and stir to combine. It will start to thicken and form a dough. Using your hands, incorporate everything well by kneading for 1-2 minutes. (*the dough will be thick & rubbery). Move the dough around in the bowl to sweep up the mixture on the bottom (you don't have to get everything).

Step 3

Split the dough in half and roll each piece into a sausage-shaped log (it doesn't have to be perfect). Now wrap tightly in parchment paper followed by aluminum foil. Make sure the foil is overlapped or it will open during cooking. Twist the ends tightly to seal.

Step 4

Place about 1 " of water into a large pot that will fit your steamer basket. Place your basket on the bottom and cover pot with a lid. Turn heat to high and bring to a boil. Once boiling, turn heat to med-low to maintain a low boil and place pepperoni log into basket. Cover and steam for 45 minutes. *Keep an eye on the water so it doesn't fully evaporate. Add more hot water if needed.

Step 5

Remove from wrapping and let it cool before chilling it for at least an hour. This will help it firm up and make it easy to slice. Keep in airtight container in the fridge for 5-6 days.
