Ingredients
- ¾ cup Longève Plant-Based Protein Crumbles-Original
- 1 tsp. vegetable bouillon powder
- 1/2 tsp. each, minced fresh sage, rosemary and thyme (or 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning)
- ¼ tsp. onion powder
- ¼ tsp. garlic powder
- 1/8 tsp. ground nutmeg
- ¼ tsp. salt
- 1 pinch black pepper (or to taste)
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper (or to taste)
- ½ cup hot water
- 1 Tbsp. vegan Worcestershire sauce (or coconut aminos for soy-free)
- 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
- 1 Tbsp. maple syrup
- ½ tsp. liquid smoke
- 1/3 cup quick rolled oats
- 1 Tbsp. ground flax meal
- 2 tsp. psyllium husk, whole flake (see note)*
- Vegetable oil for pan-frying
Instructions
- Measure all the dry spices into a mixing bowl, whisk in the the hot water, Worcestershire sauce (or coconut aminos), oil, maple and liquid smoke. Stir in the Longève Plain Plant-Based Protein Crumbles and let stand 5 mins.
- Meanwhile, grind the oats in a blender, food processor or spice grinder to a coarse flour. Add this, along with the flax meal and psyllium husk to the soaked Longève and mix well. Let stand 10 – 15 mins so the liquid is fully absorbed, and the mixture sets into a stiff cookie dough-like consistency.
- Divide the mixture into 4 approximately ¼ cup portions, and form into round, flat sausage patties, about ¼ - ½” thick.
- Heat a non-stick pan with vegetable oil and fry each patty until nicely browned on each side, about 2-3 mins per side. Remove from pan and let cool slightly before serving.
