Vegan Green Bean Casserole
A creamy mushroom gravy complements the crispier elements of this vegan take on a classic casserole, which features a base of roasted flaxseed-coated onions and, of course, green beans.
A homemade chunky mushroom gravy brings fresh flavor to this green bean casserole, which is a whole-food, plant-based take on the classic holiday dish.
INGREDIENTS
CASSEROLE
- 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 2 pinches sea salt
- 2 pinches black pepper
- 24 ounces fresh green beans, trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces (8 cups)
- 1 tablespoon sliced almonds
CHUNKY MUSHROOM GRAVY
- 1 yellow onion, cut into ½-inch dice (2 cups)
- 16 ounces mushrooms, sliced (8 cups)
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- ⅓ cup oat flour
- 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine thinly sliced onion, flaxseed, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat onions; let sit for 5 minutes.
- Spread onions on prepared sheet and bake 15 minutes until lightly brown around the edges. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, place green beans in a steamer basket in a large saucepan. Add water to just below basket. Bring to boiling. Steam, covered, about 10 minutes or until tender. Remove from heat and transfer beans to a 2½-qt. baking dish.
- To make gravy, combine diced onion, mushrooms, and garlic in a saucepan over medium heat. Cover pan and cook, stirring occasionally, for 7 to 10 minutes or until onions start to turn translucent. The mushrooms will release enough liquid to keep the vegetables from sticking to the pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together oat flour, broth, vinegar, and Italian seasoning; season with salt and pepper. Add broth mixture to mushroom mixture; cook for 3 to 5 minutes more, or until gravy thickens.
- Transfer half of gravy to a blender. Purée until smooth. Return puréed mixture to saucepan and stir well.
- Pour the gravy over the green beans in the casserole dish. Scatter browned onions and almonds over the top. Bake about 20 minutes or until heated through.
