Instructions
- Prepare the Nuts: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly toast the walnuts and cashews in a dry skillet for 3-4 minutes, then chop them coarsely.
- Sauté the Aromatics: Heat a small amount of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion until translucent (about 5 minutes), then add the garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Combine the Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the sautéed onion and garlic with the toasted nuts, breadcrumbs, lentils, thyme, rosemary, and nutritional yeast (if using). Season with salt and pepper.
- Shape the Loaf: Transfer the mixture into a parchment-lined loaf pan, pressing it down firmly to shape it into a loaf.
- Bake: Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the loaf is firm and slightly golden on top. Allow it to cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Serve: Slice the nut roast and serve with mushroom gravy or your favorite vegan sauce.
