I get the same thing. This is in my case down to trying to templatize a non-HTML file (YAML) seems like the underlying template engine is not agnostic about the content.

try with evaluate : false
` .pipe(template(options.variables,
{
interpolate: /{{([\s\S]+?)}}/g,
escape: /<%-([\s\S]+?)%>/g,
evaluate: false,
}
))

@cyberz did you ever figure out a solution for this?
