Vegan Meatloaf Cupcakes Recipes

VEGAN MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Add the chopped onion and crushed garlic to a frying pan with the olive oil and sauté until the onions are softened.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a loaf pan with non-stick spray and line it with parchment paper so that the meatloaf can be easily lifted out. Set aside.
• Drain the chickpeas and add to a mixing bowl. Mash with a fork or potato masher until roughly mashed.
• Make your breadcrumbs by breaking up the 4 slices of bread and placing into a blender and pulse blending until it makes breadcrumbs (see notes*).
• Add the breadcrumbs, soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, dijon mustard, flaxseed meal, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, tomato paste and cayenne pepper to the mixing bowl. Add in the cooked onions and garlic. Mix very well into a thick batter. Make sure everything is evenly mixed (it's a very thick mix). Transfer this into the parchment lined loaf pan and smooth down with the back of a spoon.
• Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
• While the meatloaf is baking, mix the tomato paste, brown sugar, maple syrup, garlic powder, salt and paprika in a bowl and stir together.
• When the meatloaf has baked for 30 minutes, remove it from the oven and remove the foil. Spread on the tomato glaze evenly and return it to the oven, (no foil, uncovered) to bake for a further 15 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before removing from the loaf pan by lifting the meatloaf out with the parchment paper. Let it cool for another 10 minutes.
• Slice and serve with fresh basil.

VEGAN MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Sauté the onion and garlic for about 2 minutes. Then add the chopped carrots and cook them for another 3 minutes.
• Put about 6 tablespoons of the cooked lentils aside. Put all of the ingredients except for the spices into a blender or food processor and blend until you have a sticky but chunky mixture. It's very important that you make sure to not overdo it, so the vegan meatloaf will still have some texture.
• Add the remaining lentils and season with thyme, oregano, salt, pepper, and fresh parsley. Preheat your oven to 350 °F.
• Place the mixture into a loaf pan lined with parchment paper. Make sure to let the parchment paper overlap the loaf pan, so it's easier to remove the lentil loaf once it's done.
• Bake the vegan meatloaf for 30 minutes. In the meantime make the tomato glaze. Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk well.
• After the 30 minutes of baking time are over, take the vegan meatloaf out of the oven and evenly spread the tomato glaze on top. Then return it to the oven and bake it for another 15 minutes at 350 °F.
• Allow to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then carefully lift it out with the parchment paper. Slice and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.
