Vegan Meatloaf Ingredients
Vegan Meatloaf Directions
Preheat the oven to 375º F then line a 5" x 8" loaf pan with parchment paper. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the carrot, celery,mushrooms, and onions are tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, approx. 6 to 8 minutes.
Mash the chickpeas in a large mixing basin or food processor with a potato masher until a rough pulp forms. If you are using a food processor, transfer to a large mixing bowl.
To the chickpeas, add cooked veggies, bread crumbs, hemp hearts, parsley, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix ketchup and barbecue sauce together in a medium mixing bowl. Fifty percent of this mixture should be added to the chickpeas. Season with paprika, black pepper, and salt to taste, and mix until evenly combined.
Place the chickpea mixture in the prepared loaf pan, packing it in carefully. Bake for 30 minutes, then brush with half of the leftover ketchup mixture. Remove from oven, brush with the remaining ketchup mixture, and bake for another 30 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool for 10 to 12 minutes, garnish with parsley.
Serve and enjoy.
