Italian Style Nut Loaf is the perfect alternative when catering for vegetarians over the festive season. This delicious nut loaf is not only bursting with flavour, it is full of goodness and it has extra nuttiness and bite thanks to Flahavan's Coarse Cut Oatmeal.
Skip to ingredients
- 200g celery, rinsed
- 300g carrots, peeled
- 1 onion, peeled
- 2 red peppers, deseeded
- Small handful fresh parsley
- 75g mixed nuts (try cashews, pecans and hazelnuts, but any nuts will do)
- 75g cheddar cheese, grated
- 100g Flahavan's Coarse Cut Oatmeal
- 3 tbsp sundried tomato paste
- 100g plain flour
- Salt and ground black pepper
- 3 large eggs
Method
step 1
Set the oven to 180°C/gas mark 4. Grease and line a 900g/2lb loaf tin with a double layer of non stick baking parchment. Roughly chop all the vegetables and place in a food processor with the parsley and nuts. Blend until quite finely chopped (or finely chop and grate them instead). Turn the mixture into a bowl and add the cheese, oats, tomato paste and flour. Mix well. Season to taste then stir in the eggs. Place in the baking tin and bake for 50 - 60 minutes until just firm to the touch. Leave to cool for 10 minutes then turn out of the tin. Serve sliced, hot or cold
