Breakfast "Sausage" Patties (serves ~12)6 cups ground seitan
1 can black eyed peas, drained
1/4 cup olive oil
2 Tbs arrowroot powder whisked with 2 Tbs water
1/2 tsp liquid smoke
1 Tbs vegan Worcestershire sauce
1 Tbs soy sauce
2 Tbs maple syrup
2 Tbs brown sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 Tbs paprika
2 Tbs dried sage
1 Tbs fennel seeds
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp dried thyme
1/2 Tbs dried basil
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1/2 Tbs cumin
1/4 tsp chili flakes
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup tahini
Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly grease 2 sheet pans.
In a large bowl, add together all of the ingredients and mix well--works best to mix with your hands--until well combined. Form dough into patties using 1/2 cup scoops. Shape patties about 3" in diameter and 1/2" thickness. Place onto oiled sheet pans and bake for 30 minutes. Let rest on pans for at least 15-20 minutes.
If using later, place into airtight containers and freeze until later use.
When ready to serve or if serving immediately, heat about 1 Tbs oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place pre-baked patties onto heated skillet and pan fry about 2 minutes on each side, until lightly browned and warmed through. Serve hot and enjoy!!
