Green Bean Casserole
Casserole:
- 450g (1 lb) green beans, fresh or frozen, trimmed
- 1 cup (240ml) unsweetened plant-based milk
- 1/2 cup (60g) rice flour
- 1/2 cup (60g) hemp flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
Topping:
- 2 tbsp crushed walnuts
- 2 tbsp sunflower seeds
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast flakes
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a casserole dish or line it with parchment paper.
- Cook the green beans: If using fresh green beans, steam or blanch until tender-crisp (about 5-7 minutes). If using frozen green beans, allow them to thaw slightly and drain excess moisture.
- Prepare the creamy sauce:
- In a small saucepan, whisk the rice and hemp flour with the plant-based milk over medium heat.
- Stir constantly until the mixture thickens into a smooth sauce.
- Add salt, pepper, and smoked paprika, mixing well.
- Combine: Add the green beans to the sauce and mix until evenly coated. Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish.
- Sprinkle: Evenly sprinkle the casserole with crushed walnuts, sunflower seeds, and nutritional yeast flakes.
- Bake: Place the casserole in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and crunchy.
