Vegan Creton
Category Breakfast
Preparation Time 5
Cook Time 30
Total Time 35
Ingredients
1 ½ cup red lentils (split, well rinsed)
1 cup instant oats
1 onion, diced small
4 cups water or broth (I added 1tbsp powdered vegan chicken broth to the water)
1 tbsp coconut oil
¼ cup nutritional yeast
1 tbsp creton seasoning mix (I used El•Ma•Mia brand)
Directions
Heat the onions in the coconut oil until translucent.
Add lentils and stir until well coated in the oil.
Add the oats, nutritional yeast, and spices. Stir until combined for about 1 minute.
Add the water or broth.
If not using broth, add salt to taste.
Bring to a boil then reduce heat, simmer for 25 minutes or until the lentils are cooked and most of the liquid is absorbed. Stir once in a while.
Using a hand blender, blend about half the mixture in pulses. Be sure not to blend it completely to keep that creton texture.
If hand blender isn't available, let the mixture cool and add half to blender.
Transfer the mixture to ramekins or other containers. Leave in the refrigerator for a few hours before serving.
My comments
Before beginning, check the salt level of your creton spices. This should determine how much broth or added salt to use.
