Power up your breakfast with this simple, savoury, plant-based “sausage” bagelwich!

To make the “sausage” patties, cut the tempeh into rounds a bit smaller than the bagels using cookie cutters then slice each round into 2 horizontally to create 4 patties.
Combine the broth and spices in a shallow pan and add the tempeh. Bring to a slow boil and cook for 20 minutes, turning patties around from time to time. Drain on paper towels before pan-frying briefly to crisp up.
To Assemble the Bagel Breakfast Sandwich:
Toast bagels and spread with ½ tablespoon Vegenaise then top with vegan egg, plant-based tempeh breakfast sausage patty, tomato and lettuce, and bagel top.
