Step-by-Step Instructions for Vegan Lentil Meatloaf
- In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil and add the lentils. Reduce heat and simmer for 25-30 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.
- In a skillet, heat the vegetable oil and sauté the onion for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat.
- Preheat your oven to 392°F (200°C).
- In a food processor, combine the oats and ground flax seeds until finely blended. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
- Add cooked lentils, kidney beans, walnuts, and sunflower seeds to the mixture. Incorporate the onion and garlic to a coarse texture.
- Fold in grated carrot, chopped mushrooms, thyme, rosemary, tomato paste, mustard, soy sauce, paprika, and season with salt and pepper until well mixed.
- Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and transfer the mixture. Press firmly and smooth the top.
- Bake in the oven for 30 minutes.
- Prepare the glaze by mixing cranberry chutney and ketchup.
- After 30 minutes, remove the meatloaf and brush with the glaze. Return to the oven and bake for another 20 minutes.
