Ingredients
- 4 pieces Vegan croissants
- 4 pieces Vegan sausage patties
- 400 grams Firm tofu
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 0.5 teaspoons Turmeric powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Black salt (Kala Namak)
- 4 slices Vegan cheese slices
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 cup Spinach leaves
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Step 2
Slice the vegan croissants in half horizontally, but do not cut through completely. Arrange them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Step 3
In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the vegan sausage patties and cook for about 4 minutes on each side, until browned and heated through. Set aside on a plate.
Step 4
Crumble the firm tofu into the same pan, breaking it into small pieces to resemble scrambled eggs.
Step 5
Sprinkle nutritional yeast, turmeric powder, black salt, regular salt, and black pepper over the tofu. Stir well to combine and cook for about 5-7 minutes, until the tofu is slightly golden and heated through.
Step 6
Place a slice of vegan cheese on each sausage patty.
Step 7
Add a handful of fresh spinach leaves into the pan with the tofu and cook for an additional 2 minutes until wilted.
Step 8
Assemble the croissants by placing a sausage patty with cheese on the bottom half, top it with scrambled tofu and spinach mixture.
Step 9
Close the croissants and place them in the preheated oven. Bake for 5 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the croissants are warm.
Step 10
Serve immediately, cut in half for easier handling, and enjoy your Vegan Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Croissant.
