How to Make Maple Marinated Tempeh
- Preheat oven to 230°C (450°F).
- Slice tempeh into your desired size pieces.
- Select an ovenproof dish that holds the tempeh slices in a single snug layer.
- In a bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients: 1/4 cup maple syrup, 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free), 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (or more, to taste), 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and a pinch of black pepper.
- Pour half of the marinade into the baking dish and arrange the tempeh slices on top in a single layer.
- Pour the remaining marinade evenly over the tempeh.
- Cover the baking dish tightly with foil.
- Bake for 15 minutes. Then, carefully use tongs to turn the tempeh slices.
- Continue baking, covered, for another 15 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for a further 10 minutes, or until the tempeh is browned and caramelized.
