Ingredients

• 1 cup Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP)
• 1 cup Vegetable broth
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.5 cup Oat flour (or blended oats)
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
• 5 tablespoons Water (for flax egg)
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 0.25 cup Ketchup (for topping)
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 tablespoon Oil or vegan butter (for sautéing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a loaf pan.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the TVP and vegetable broth. Stir well and set aside for 10 minutes to allow the TVP to rehydrate.

Step 3

While the TVP is soaking, prepare the flax egg by mixing the ground flaxseed with 5 tablespoons of water in a small bowl. Set aside for 5-10 minutes until it thickens.

Step 4

In a skillet, heat the oil or vegan butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until soft, about 4-5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Drain any excess liquid from the rehydrated TVP. In a large mixing bowl, combine the TVP, sautéed onion and garlic, oat flour, breadcrumbs, flax egg, soy sauce, tomato paste, smoked paprika, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt. Mix well until fully combined.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, pressing it down firmly and evenly.

Step 7

Spread the ketchup evenly on top of the loaf, then drizzle with the Dijon mustard for added flavor.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the loaf is firm to the touch.

Step 9

Let the meatloaf cool for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
