People STILL think that as vegans, we deprive ourselves of good food! Looking at these Vegan Italian Sausages... do I look deprived?! 🤣
Ingredients

Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup white beans (rinsed and drained)
- 1 cup low-sodium vegetable broth
- 2 Tbs low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 Tbs tomato paste
- 1 tsp chipotles in adobo
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup vital wheat gluten
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 1 1/2 tsp fennel seed
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp thyme
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Mix the wet ingredients in a blender until smooth
- In a large bowl, whisk all of the dry ingredients together
- Pour the wet into the dry and mix just until a soft dough is formed.
- Knead the dough for 30 sec to 1 minute and then separate into even pieces.
- For 4 FAT sausages, divide them into 4 pieces. I would probably try for 5.
- Roll and form each piece of dough into a sausage shape and roll tightly in parchment paper, and then again in foil - twisting the ends sealed.
- Steam in your Instant Pot on the trivet and 1 cup of water for 40 min. Allow 10 minutes for the steam to vent naturally.
- Place on a plate in the fridge and let them chill for at least 30 minutes. (the paper will be easier to remove)
- Dry fry in a skillet or use a George Foreman like I did to get the grill marks.
- Dress up your Vegan Italian Sausages however you like them!
