Ingredients

• 1 cup chickpeas (cooked and drained)
• 0.5 cup rolled oats
• 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
• 5 tablespoons warm water
• 0.5 cup onion (finely chopped)
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
• 1.5 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon fennel seeds (crushed)
• 0.5 teaspoon sage (dried)
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons olive oil (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed and warm water. Stir well and let it sit for 5 minutes to form a flax 'egg'.

Step 2

In a food processor, add the chickpeas and rolled oats. Pulse until the mixture becomes crumbly but not completely smooth.

Step 3

Transfer the chickpea-oat mixture to a mixing bowl. Add the flax 'egg', chopped onion, minced garlic, nutritional yeast, soy sauce or tamari, smoked paprika, crushed fennel seeds, dried sage, black pepper, and salt. Mix thoroughly until everything is well combined.

Step 4

Using your hands, divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 3 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick.

Step 5

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.

Step 6

Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and heated through.

Step 7

Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.

Step 8

Serve the vegan sausage patties warm. They pair wonderfully with toast, vegan eggs, or alongside a hearty breakfast bowl.
