How to Prepare Lentil Quinoa Hemp Seed Meatballs [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
- Combine all ingredients except bread crumbs in a food processor and pulse them about 6-8 times, until they're combined.
- Add the breadcrumbs to a shallow bowl.
- Use a tablespoon to scoop out the bean mixture and use your hand to mold some into a ball. You can’t really roll them in your hand; gently shape them.
- Then, coat the bean balls in the crumbs by gently pressing and rolling them into the crumbs.
- If you want to fry them, add about 1 1/2 tablespoon of coconut oil to a skillet and heat it over medium heat until a crumb tossed in the oil sizzles immediately on contact. Add the bean balls and cook, turning over every 30 seconds until they're golden and heated through.
- If you want to bake them, Pre-heat oven to 400°F. Place meatballs on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake them for about 15 minutes, or until lightly browned.
