This has been a hit with the whole family, even the non-vegan extended family! We love breakfast, and this hits the spot EVERY SINGLE TIME! This is always on the weekly meal prep/batch cooking plan. If these aren't within arms reach for the kids, I hear about it!
I never thought I could replicate the texture and flavor of breakfast sausage but this is as close as I've ever had. I feel good about feeding this to my family on an everyday basis because of the healthy ingredients. I'm busy and completely understand why people reach for pre-made items. With these there is absolutely no need. Have them ready to go when you need them! Make them and see what you think!
I highly recommend watching the video to see the process. Here's the recipe video and what the crew thinks about the breakfast sausage!
INGREDIENTS:
3 1/2 cups water
1 Tbsp. Onion powder
1 Tbsp. Dried Rosemary
1 Tbsp. Maple syrup
2 tsp. Garlic powder
2- 2 ½ tsp. Dried sage
1 tsp. Dried Thyme
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper (optional)
3 cups quick-cooking oats
½ Cup of Cooked Rice (optional if you don’t use rice add ½ cup of quick oats)
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Line cooking trays with parchment paper
3. Combine all ingredients, except oats and rice, in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil over high heat.
4. Remove from heat; add oats and rice, stir well. Allow mixture to sit 5 minutes.
5. Scoop mixture into 2-inch round balls; place on prepared baking sheet and flatten gently with the back of a wet spoon. Bake 20 minutes; flip sausages and bake an additional 5-10 minutes or until firm.
6. Optional but HIGHLY RECOMMEND Heat non-stick skillet add a little soy sauce and sausage, toss to coat and brown/warm. This gives the outer saltiness that sausage has. Or the last 5 or so minutes of baking brush with soy sauce on each side and continue baking process.
These store well in the fridge and freezer. When storing let them cool after baking and store in fridge or freezer. When ready to eat proceed with step 6.
