Ingredients
- 1 cup dry TVP granules (such as Bob's Red Mill)
- 1 cup vegetable broth warmed
- 2 tbsp. ground flax or chia seeds
- 2 tbsp. soy sauce
- 1 tbsp. maple syrup
- ½ cup quick oats
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour (or sub oat flour for gluten-free)
- 2 tsp. smoked paprika
- 1 tsp. fennel seeds
- ½ tsp. onion powder
- ½ tsp. garlic powder
- ¼ tsp. black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉.
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium bowl stir together the TVP granules, warm vegetable broth, ground flax seed (or chia seed), soy sauce, and maple syrup. Allow the mixture to rest for about 10 minutes until most of the liquid has been absorbed.
- Stir in the remaining ingredients.
- Form eight patties with your hands, and place on the parchment lined baking sheet. (The mixture will be sticky, so lightly wet your hands to prevent the sausage mixture from sticking to your hands.) You can also use a cookie scoop to portion the patties and flatten them with a spatula misted with non-stick cooking spray.
- Bake the patties for 20 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cook time.
- Remove from the oven and serve hot, or let cool and refrigerate. They'll keep for up to a week.
- To reheat, place the patties in a non-stick pan coated with a little olive oil or non-stick spray. Heat over medium low, about 3 minutes per side, serve, and enjoy!
Notes
- We use Bob's Red Mill TVP granules, which are available in grocery stores, specialty food stores, and on Amazon.
- Wetting your hands lightly helps keep the mixture from sticking to them when you form the patties.
- As an alternative to baking, the patties may be cooked in a non-stick skillet using a little olive or vegetable oil. Cook them over medium-low heat for 3-5 minutes per side to ensure they get cooked all the way through, which also helps ensure they don't fall apart.
