Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula, and cook until browned and cooked through, about 8 minutes.
Mix in the tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Let the sauce simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
In a medium saucepan, heat 2 cups of oat milk over medium heat, but do not let it boil. In a separate small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of flour with a bit of water to make a smooth paste.
Whisk the flour paste into the warm oat milk gradually, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in the nutritional yeast and nutmeg for added flavor. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Spread a small amount of meat sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Place a layer of dairy-free lasagne sheets over the sauce.
Spread half of the remaining meat sauce over the lasagne sheets and top with half of the baby spinach.
Add another layer of lasagne sheets, followed by the remaining meat sauce and spinach.
Top with a final layer of lasagne sheets and then pour the béchamel sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the shredded dairy-free mozzarella-style cheese over the béchamel layer.
Cover with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for another 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
Let the lasagne rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
