Chickpea Veggie Loaf

This hearty Chickpea Veggie Loaf is a vegan style meatloaf made with chickpeas and cannellini beans or white beans. Chickpeas in this recipe are used as a substitute to meat with a rich source of protein and I have to say the taste is great too.

A perfect way to introduce vegetables to children and ideal for when you are entertaining vegetarians.

To make Chickpea Veggie Loaf, you will need the following ingredients:

So, how to make Chickpea Veggie Loaf?

Steps to make Chickpea Veggie Loaf

1	Cook garlic and onions	5
In a skillet over medium heat, heat oil and add onions, garlic and a pinch of salt. Cook until soft and translucent.
2	Add other vegetables	3
Add celery, peppers and cranberries and cook for 3 minutes.
3	Blend bean and chickpea mixture	2
Drain liquid from the chickpeas and beans really well and place in a food processor. Blend the chickpeas, beans, cilantro, parsley and half of the cooked veggie mixture prepared in step 2. Continue blending until the mixture is mashed with some coarse chunky. You can add a handful of greens in as well at this step, if you wish. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
4	Prepare soy free bbq sauce mix	1
In a mixing bowl, combine soy free barbecue sauce with chia seed meal and lemon juice and set aside for 1 minute.
5	Prepare loaf mixture	2
In a large mixing bowl, combine beans mixture, leftover vegetables, spice, tahini and prepared barbecue sauce mix together.
6	Add breadcrumbs	2
Mix breadcrumbs through, evenly, so you have a veggie burger type mixture. Adjust seasoning with salt and spices, to taste.
7	Prepare loaf	2
Transfer veggie mixture to a pre-lined loaf pan with parchment paper. If you don’t have a loaf pan, shape mixture into a rectangular log-shape on a lined baking sheet.
8	Prepare glaze	3
In a mixing bowl, whisk the barbecue sauce, hot sauce, maple syrup, ketchup, ground pepper and smoked paprika, until well combined. Pour evenly over the entire loaf and then cover with baking parchment paper.
9	Preheat oven	5
Preheat oven to 400 °F.
10	Bake	45
Bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes, remove parchment paper cover and continue baking for another 15-25 minutes until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. For crispier edges, bake for a little longer.
11	Cool	15
Cool for 15 minutes before removing from the baking pan. And cool completely before slicing with a sharp knife.
12	Serve
Serve with sides of your choice and don’t forget the cranberry sauce!
