Time 40m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (8 ounce) package tempeh, cut into 4 pieces
2 slices whole grain bread
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  • Bring a pot of water to a boil; cook tempeh in the boiling water to soften the flavor of the tempeh, about 5 minutes. Drain and cool tempeh.
  • Place bread in a food processor and pulse until evenly crumbled. Transfer bread to a large bowl. Crumble cooled tempeh over bread crumbs; add Parmesan cheese, egg, parsley, oregano, basil, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes; mix well using your hands. Form tempeh mixture into 1-inch balls and arrange 'meatballs' on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes; flip 'meatballs' and continue cooking until lightly browned, about 10 more minutes.

These meatballs were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add more spices next time.

These meatballs were a little too firm for my liking. I think I'll try cooking them for a shorter amount of time next time.

I followed the recipe exactly but my meatballs didn't hold together very well. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
