Method

1
Heat the oven to 375°F and line a loaf pan with parchment. Stir the flax and water together and let it thicken.
2
Finely dice the onion, grate the carrots and finely chop the mushrooms.
3
Toast the walnuts in a dry pan until fragrant, then chop them.
4
Cook the onion, carrot and mushrooms in a dry pan until all the liquid is gone and they start to brown.
5
Mash half the lentils in a big bowl, then fold in the rest, the cooked vegetables, flax, walnuts, panko, nutritional yeast, hemp, spices and a teaspoon of salt.
6
Whisk the BBQ sauce and coconut aminos together for the glaze.
7
Press firmly into the pan and spread half the glaze over the top. Bake.
8
Brush with the rest of the glaze and bake again until sticky.
9
Rest at least 15 minutes before slicing so it holds together.

Storage

Keeps 5 days in the fridge. Freeze slices for up to 3 months and reheat in the oven.

Good to know

Swapping to Beyond Beef? Skip the flax and bake 10 minutes less. It holds together on its own.
