Ingredients

• 1 cup Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP)
• 1 cup Boiling water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseeds
• 5 tablespoons Water (for flax egg)
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs (or gluten-free breadcrumbs)
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Sage
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the TVP and boiling water. Stir and let sit for 5–10 minutes, or until the TVP has absorbed the water and softened.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the ground flaxseeds with 5 tablespoons of water to create a flax egg. Let it sit for 5 minutes until it thickens.

Step 3

Once the TVP is rehydrated, add the olive oil, soy sauce, nutritional yeast, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, sage, black pepper, salt, and maple syrup. Mix thoroughly.

Step 4

Add in the prepared flax egg and mix until everything is fully combined. The mixture should hold together when pressed. If it's too crumbly, add a small amount of water, one tablespoon at a time.

Step 5

Scoop out a small handful of the mixture and shape it into a patty, about 2.5–3 inches in diameter. Repeat until all the mixture is used up (should yield about 8 patties).

Step 6

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil.

Step 7

Cook the patties in the skillet for 3–4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and heated through.

Step 8

Serve immediately, or let cool and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat before serving.
