Happy Thanksgiving! Did you know that it is possible to celebrate this special holiday without animal cruelty? Check out this amazing Tofurky roast recipe 😍 🌱 Read below for ingredients and directions! ✨

Ingredients

1 Tofurky Roast, thawed in fridge for 24 hours

For The Baste

  • 3 tablespoons (45 ml) olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) maple syrup
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1.5 teaspoons each of fresh chopped thyme, oregano, sage, and rosemary (for dried herbs, use ½ teaspoon each or sub with 2 teaspoons dried poultry or Italian seasoning – rubbed not ground)

Vegetables (Optional)

  • 1 medium sweet potato, peeled and chopped
  • 1-2 carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 6-10 Creamer potatoes, halved

For The Gravy (Optional)

  • Tofurky “drippings”
  • 3 tablespoons (35 grams) flour
  • 2 cups (500 ml) vegetable broth

Instructions

Tofurky Roast and Vegetables

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Use a knife or scissors to carefully cut off one of the end clips. Run the thawed Tofurky Roast under warm water as you loosen and remove the plastic.

2. Prepare the baste in a small bowl. Mix together olive oil, soy sauce, maple syrup, minced garlic, and herbs.

3. If cooking vegetables, toss them with 3 tablespoons of baste. Arrange vegetables in your baking dish. Put a piece of parchment paper in the center of your baking dish. Add the Tofurky Roast and cover with half of the baste.

4. Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil.

5. Cook for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Check for doneness at 1 hour. Once the vegetables are nearly tender and the Tofurky is golden-brown, pour the remaining baste over the Tofurky and cook, uncovered, for an additional 10-15 minutes. Cook until the vegetables are tender and the Tofurky Roast reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

6. Use a very sharp or serrated knife to thinly slice the Tofurky Roast for serving.

Tofurky Gravy

1. Heat the Tofurky “drippings” in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once hot, make a roux by whisking in 3 tablespoons of flour. Add a splash of the vegetable broth if the roux is too thick to stir. Cook, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes. Whisk in the vegetable broth, slowly and gradually, to prevent lumps.

2. Simmer until your desired consistency is reached (the gravy will thicken slightly as it cools.) Taste and adjust the consistency and seasoning using vegetable broth, water, salt, and pepper.
