Ingredients
For the White Bean Nuggets
- 2 cups cooked white beans
- ½ cup rolled oats
- 1 carrot
- 1 onion
- ⅓ cup water
- 2 tsp cumin
- 2 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp savory
- ¾ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp ground flax seeds
For the Cashew Sauce
- ½ cup raw cashews
- ½ cup water
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
- ¼ tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- For the bean nuggets, place all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until a smooth and sticky mixture forms. (You may need to add one or two more tablespoons of water if necessary to go easier).
- Once it is ready, take about a full tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. I used an ice cream/cookie scoop spoon and it was a lot quicker and easier as my hands stayed clean.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the nuggets in it.
- Bake for 15-20 mins until slightly brown and little cracks start to form.
- Meanwhile, prepare the Cashew sauce. Place all ingredients for it in a high-powered blender and blend for several minutes until creamy.
- Serve the White Bean Nuggets with this rich and creamy Cashew Sauce and enjoy!
