Easy Vegan nut loaf:
- medium sized onion or 1 small leek, chopped
- 1 fl oz (30ml) vegetable oil
- 2 tsp (10ml) yeast extract in 1/4 pint hot water (optional)
- 8 oz (225g) chopped mixed nuts
- 2 tbsp ground almonds
- 4 oz (100g) wholemeal breadcrumbs
- 1 tbsp sage
- Pinch cayenne pepper
- Salt and pepper to taste
Method
- Pre-heat oven to 180C/350F/gas mark 4
- Saute the onion or leek in the oil until soft, not browned.
- Combine all of the ingredients together; the mixture may be slightly slack. Turn into an oiled ovenproof dish and bake for 30 minutes until golden brown.
We just use cashews and left over bread blitzed in the thermomix instead of the chopped nuts and almond meal and bread crumbs. And the yeast is optional really as I forgot to include it and it was fine. I also added a sprinkle of dried rosemary. It’s often quite crumbly - the more you food process it the more it’s stays together like a roast.
We used to do a similar one that was more complicated and had layers but this is just as enjoyable and much less prep time.
