Hey guys! As promised, here’s my new favorite seitan recipe. Cheap, easy, and delicious. Tag me on Instagram if you try it out❤️I can’t wait to see your creations!
I just made the recipe
I added loads of pepper , and a heaping tablespoon of Italian herbs , 1 tablespoon of onion powder
1/2 tsp nutmeg
Used a small ice cream scoop to form meat balls
Brown them on Sauté in my instant pot
Than added them all in cover with veggie broth add 3 bay leaves
Steam setting for 20 min
Omg they are the real deal tender meat balls
Add them to marinara
Pea protein is a total game changer Girl
OMGOSH...Drooling! Thank you for sharing your variation :)
I like the idea of the instant pot! Going to try that out!
This has become a staple. I just tried putting them in the oven at 400 once sliced, they made seitan chips so crunchy and good.
Awesome video! Thank you!
Loved the lupini bean seitan recipe as well
Another great video 📸 thank you for sharing 🤗 this looks just as good as your other seitan recipe 🤤
Awesome, I was waiting for this recipe, we'll be trying both of your seitan recipes over the next couple of weeks 😋
Hey pretty lady Natalie! So glad I found your channel! I love seitan I can't wait to try your recipe! Thanks so much for sharing!
Love it! Thank you for this!
Thank you so much for all of your videos. I’m a Mom of 4 looking for healthy and yummy recipes to keep me going and that I can share with my kids. They absolutely love your seitan so thank you!!
Omgosh!!! I made these tonight with my kitchen maid that I have had for over 20 years that i never used an it was so easy an they taste amazing!! Thank you so much ❤
Hands down The BEST seitan recipes I have tried so far. Seriously delicious and so tasty. Made it for dinner tonight and lunch/ dinner the next few days. Thank you for sharing! Love your channel and videos. Very helpful in my fitness journey. ♥️
The slicing in the food processor is so smart. Thank you! I'm vegan, not a body builder, but love to find new ways to get protein. I'll be making this and your nuggets today.
I have just finished making this a couple of minutes ago. The hardest and longest part is waiting for it to cool down.
But it is amazing. So much protein for sandwiches and wraps and pizza and I guess anything you want.
I had very simple seasonings and it still tastes amazing.
My vital is years old and still works, clearly.
I can't get over how easy this is.
Thank you.
SO Amazing, I love your recipes!! xo
“Rice and potatoes and other fun things..” gave me a chuckle. Can’t wait to try the new recipe!
Very easy and very good! I watched a bunch of Seitan videos with so many steps and they were daunting for a first timer! Thank you so much!!
Great to hear! I agree so many great recipes out there, but very complex.
My goal was to make a recipe that was super easy for anyone to make.
Thank you for sharing your recipes 💛
So easy to make thank you - made my first batch yesterday because of this
thank you sm for this!! i love watching your meal prep vids! It makes me feel less overwhelmed with trying to hit my macros, especially my protein intake! I’ve tried making seitan a couple times but your recipes are *chef’s kiss* they look so easy & delicious! I can’t wait to try this 😋
Awww 🥰 that makes my day💕I’m so glad my recipes are helping you on journey ❤️sending you a big hug 🤗.
This looks great! I’m going to try it 😀
Woow.. yummy yummy,nice recipe
My boyfriend loves the versatility and macros in this recipe. He has been raving about how high his protein has been without trying very hard. Seitan, tofu, plant based protein shakes, and beans and legumes have been helping him hit even higher numbers in the gym. I did the slices in my food processor but had an issue with the logs getting the blade stuck, so I had to press down hard while holding the lid while I fed through the tube which resulted in almost a shaved neat consistency. Not bad but was going for the thicker slices seen in this video. Oh well, making again now and will cut into small chunks. Thanks for sharing this!
Yum! Looking forward to trying this one…I just got pea protein today, perfect timing!
Wow. Looks Yummy. I always love to watch your video so interesting
I can't wait to try this recipe. Thanks
I'm going to try this. Helpful video. Always wondered too if there was a website that would break down nutritional info.
I can't believe that I never thought to use my food processor slicing attachment to cut up homemade Seitan into thinner slices. I always end up with giant chunks trying to cut it by hand. Using the food processor is gonna be a game changer for me! I've been making a variation on your lupini Seitan nuggets and will have to try out this recipe too.
Oh my gosh you’re gonna love the food processor hack! You will never go back to chopping it by hand LOL
I’m glad you’re enjoying the Nuggets🙌🏽 I can’t wait for you to try this one ☝🏽
Same! I always am trying to thinly slice by hand which rarely works out lol! Will definitely be using this hack next time I make seitan! ❤️
@@annabellebarkley403 it’s such a time saver!Just make sure that your Seitan is fully cooled off… If you try to slice it while it’s still warm it won’t work.
I came on here to say the same thing! What a simple idea, yet it’s genius! No more struggling to get thin Seitan slices while cutting off my fingertips! 😂
We LOVE the nuggets!!! newbie to following your meal preps vids, and enjoying them VERY muchso far!! I don't have unflavored pea protein, I was wondering if its possible to replace with unflavored collagen ?
I just made this and is was so good! I'm always trying to find a high protein source for my husband who is 287lbs of muscle. He is very sensitive to soy and if he eats something with soy he normally vomits for like a day. I've been Vegan 6 years and our son has only been vegan but my husband has ate meat when he's away from home. This recipe is going to be a game changer for him. I feel like I'll be able to send him with lunches he'll actually eat and won't make him sick. Also my 5 year old just ate an entire log of this he said it's better than any tofu "chicken" ever even from the store.
Can't wait to try this recipe. Thank you💐
Enjoy 😉
I can’t wait to make this. One serving looks like so much food!
Man it looks delicious. I can't process gluten but thank you so much for this idea 💖
Natalia! You safe my life! Gracias! Puedo medirlo una vez ya están echos en mis porciones para luego pre-empacarlos?Estoy cambiando a vegano poco a poco y esta receta tuya! Dios!! Me a ayudado grandemente porqué preparo mi comida bulk!! Gracias jibara! Dios te cuide!
Absolutely LOVE your seitan RECIPES.THANK YOU SO MUCH. I will definitely be trying this once I get some pea protein again.
Can I ask... Is this a complete protein source with the addition of pea protein? Xx
I love the macros in this recipe! Can I make this recipe in the nugget shape?
Thanks for sharing ❤ does it freeze well?
Cant wait to try this!
Yas! Happy cooking!!!🙌🏽👩🏽🍳
Love ur recipes wish u could tell us, some other recipes u do with seitan.
Thank you so much, I can watch your videos for hours..somehow they actually make me smile, (73 and a widow) I try to buy so many of your products to help you, and you said "I hope you guys dont find it boring" Natty! never ever boring, for your golden persoanlity shines thru! I still hope you write a complete memoir of your fascinating life, and of course with all these seitan recipes, lol!! I enjoy your different hairstyles...I keep you in my prayers, and love you so much! 💯❤🙏
Thank you so much for the kind words
Hi Nathalie, I have now seen so many videos about making seitan yourself. Yours is the best in my eyes. As I don't have peaprotein, I would just use wheat gluten, nutritional yeast and the sesanings and soy sauce. Would it be the same result even though peaprotein hasn't been included? Thx for getting back to me . Cheers from Germany
I've been using a mandoline to shred my seitan. I knead it with my food processor blade, but never thought to shred that way. That's genius!
Great video!
Thank you so much! I hope you give it a try🙌🏽🌱💪🏽
Thanks for sharing!
Enjoy 😉
Thank you for your good recipe❤❤. What products can replace amino and pea protein?
Love ur recipes! Wish u could share with us , some other recipes with seitan.
You can do so many things with it… wraps, burritos, use it for meal prep and add sauce, salads, etc… possibilities are endless. I also plan on sharing a sweet seitan soon🥰
I made the original recipe with the bbq rub. It's so good 👍 thank you
So good!
Going to make this right now!
Yeah! Enjoy ☺️
Just realized I'm eating your seitan as I watch this and I have all the ingredients. I love Anthony's, so easy to have them just shipped to Hawaii instead of searching everywhere. Quick question. Have you ever tried slicing them using the attachment for the Kitchenaid? I was thinking of getting that as I don't really have room for a full-blown food processor. Thanks for the video.
This is a lot less expensive than buying store made seitan-for sure! Can’t wait to try.
Absolutely! I buy all my ingredients in bulk on Amazon…They last me a long time and I make so many…so many batches!
Hi Natalie, I love your channel! I made this seitan and I don't know what I did wrong, but it was SO rubbery and chewy it was nearly inedible.... BUT I saved it by adding it to a chilli with lots of garlic, ground cumin, coriander, etc and it's delicious!! :)
You didn’t do anything wrong💕 Seitan takes some trial and error to get it just right to the consistency that you enjoy. This happens when it’s kneaded too much before cooking. I like the really tough consistency because I can feed it through the food processor slicer a lot easier. If you’re looking for a more lighter consistency knead for half of the time Or until all the ingredients are combined and don’t over mix.
If you under mix you will get a bread like consistency And if you over mix it’ll be a hard Seitan. It will take some practice to finding that balance right in the middle.🙌🏽
Thanks!
Have you ever tried to freeze it? I usually do meal prep for a month and wondered how long it would last before it would turn ... if that is even possible with the ingredients used. BTW - this has been a game-changer for me. I used to average maybe 50 grams per day of protein ... not healthy for my weight ... anyway ... now I am up to 100 or more thanks to all your recipes. I really appreciate you!
I have another seitan recipe that uses pea protein and I think it’s a great way to reduce the bready flavor of seitan. I’m eager to try yours!
Agree! I think it improves the texture ❤️ happy cooking 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Mmmm! I made it and I think it's the best-tasting seitan I've made! My dough didn't pull togeter well so I'll use a little more water next time. But the taste!
In a pinch, do you have any store-bought seitan brands you can recommend that fall within a similar macro range? Otherwise, can't wait to try this out! ❤️
Yum 🤤
I love making homemade seitan too
Obsessed 🤩
Even if we are salt averse? I’ll try it both ways. After you’ve been ditching salt everything with salt taste over seasoned. Ty for your channel.
Mine is in the oven right now! I'm so excited about this, all the prepackaged seitan has so much fat, this is much more macro friendly as you said...One question tho, is can you freeze this? Thanks!
yes, you can freeze it in an air tight container or reusable baggies. I recommend portioning it out first.
u should try barebells protein bars!
This is the second seitan vlog I have seen of yours and I love ❤ this one as well. I can definitely see how versatile this can be.
So do you add the pea protein to bunk up the protein amount. There is a lot in vital wheat gluten already. I have both so I don't mind doing it but just wondered why you add pea protein.
I have saved this because it will be the main way I make seitan now. Thank you
Thank you so much 😊 I’m glad you are enjoying them.
I like to add Pea protein flour to break up the texture of just straight vital wheat 🌾 . When I use vital wheat gluten on its own…it’s too gummy for me. I know a lot of people love that texture, but I don’t. Adding a second component to the recipe, in my opinion improves texture slightly. You can totally just use vital wheat by subbing the pea for more VWG if you prefer ☺️.
@@NatalieMatthewsFitVeganChef that makes sense. It is VERY clumpy on its own, I know. Great well I hope to try it tonight so I have a source in the fridge.
@@townsendstephen Awesome!
If you’re making it at night time just let it cool overnight in the refrigerator and slice it in the morning. I put it through the food processor the following day and I find it slices a lot better.
How can we cut them the same way if we dont have this exact accessory ? Thanks!
Thank you
Hi really interesting recepie how many gr is 1 portion
Hey Natalie! Could you use chickpea powder as a substitute for the pea powder? I can't find the powder on amazon for the pea powder from anthony's. Love your videos! About to start my plant based prep at the end of this week and I'm looking for different protein sources aside from tofu and yves veggie patties that i had used in my last prep! Any advice on what you do to spice up protein prep would be so helpful
Yes you can! It will change texture and flavor slightly (more like a bread consistency) and macros will be slightly different as well. Have you tried pea crumbles? Similar macros to seitan as well.
@@NatalieMatthewsFitVeganChef I’ve tried textured vegetable protein before! I think with that one I just don’t know what recipe or meal prep to make out of it! Would love if you had prep friendly recipe suggestions for different prep meals to make using pea crumbles!
Could I replace the unflavored protein powder with anything? Maybe chickpea flour? I only have flavored vanilla protein.
Hi Natalie! This was the first seitan recipe I made of yours that did not turn out well. Could you help me figure out went wrong? I mixed mine with the same kitchen aid. Slowly at first then a little faster at speed 3 for 3 minutes. The dough was hard to mold. I baked mine for 20 minutes one side and 16 minutes the second side. I waited about an hour before I tried to slice them with my mandolin and I broke my mandolin trying to slice them. Mine are like rubber. I can barely get a knife through them. Did I over kneed them or bake them too long? The color and toastiness looked just like yours. I’m just so sad I did it wrong. I’m still going to eat them because I don’t want to be wasteful. Taste is great, but the rubber texture I got is not desirable.
Do you think this suitable if you have ibs? As it is so chewy;)
Using this intimidates me.
I felt the same way. Lol now I can’t live without it
Will the additional pea protein make it a complete protein?
Great stuff! I am going to try it, but... all of that contains a mere 35 grams of protein?! I find that hard to believe. Just looking at it, I am fairly sure there is more! (APPEND: Oh, so it's PER SERVING, and all that is 10 servings haha... whew! Makes more sense :P )
Does pea protein affect the texture much? I’ve made a few different seitan recipes before, including your recipe without pea protein today! I’m sure it would be a great addition for more protein
Yes, it does a bit...it's a bit more firm, that's why I recommend slicing it very thing for better texture.
What is the amount do you use for the first 3 ingredients?
Hi Natalie, i've been wanting to try this recipe for quite a while, but i can't find any premium pea protein where i live, so i was wandering if i could use oat fiber instead of the pea protein but i don't know if it'll work. (Even though they're both powder-like so maybe it doesn't really matter which one i use as long as it's a powder or has a flour like consistency?)
If you ever see this comment please let me know what you think, thank youu!
Hi, you can sub it out for chickpea flour… I don’t recommend using oat fiber for this recipe.
It’s not the same as pea flour, pea flour is mostly Protein & no carbs. They both react different.
@@NatalieMatthewsFitVeganChef Thank you so much for the suggestion, i will definitely try it with chickpea flour instead.
Fantastic 👋 S'abonner merci 👍💪💪💪💪👍
Can you use it as meat (carne asada) for tacos?
How do you store them? Can touch place in freezer?
How many oz/grams is 1 serving? I’m trying to put it all in MFP but it just says for 1 serving …am I missing it?
You’re so beautiful 🤩 thank you! 🖤
I know this is an older video, but how long does it last in the fridge.
Can I make that without a blender?🙏
Can I use garbanzo bean flour instead so I don’t have to make a trip to the grocery store? 😬😬
Mine came out dry and I added quite a bit of extra water…. What should I do differently?
Hi! How many calories is it per serving?
How long do these stay good? Can I freeze them? 10 servings is a lot unless you eat 2-3 servings d ay. Thanks!
yes...you can freeze them for 5-6 months in an air tight container.
@@NatalieMatthewsFitVeganChef Thanks!!
Do you put sauce on these when reheating? Also does it freeze well?
Yes, I recommend letting them cool completely before slicing them…Then put them in an airtight container and you can freeze them up to five to six months.
And yes to the sauce🙌🏽 sauce it up!!!
That’s why I made it very basic so you guys could have fun with adding sauces or other condiments that you enjoy. I love vegan honey mustard, Barbecue sauce, Or Caesar dressing for a Caesar salad.
@@NatalieMatthewsFitVeganChef great, thanks :)
hi, can you make this with soy protein instead? 😊
Yes, (gluten and soy) vs (gluten and pea)
the soy flour has a very potent flavor.
Would anyone mind sharing this recipe with me?
I had saved the recipe link that I found, but the recipe is no longer there.
Can you add Lupini beans to this too or should it be omitted for the recipe?
Yes, you can! You will need to pay around with the liquid amount if you add beans.
Perfect! Thank YOU 💖
Does this taste different from the store bought seitan? Not a huge fan of the store bought stuff.
Store bought is so gross. Her seitan is great!!
How many grams per each serving ?
is this satiating? I intend to use this for weight loss ?
Very satiating.
@@NatalieMatthewsFitVeganChef thanks a lot , its hard to find affordable sources of concentrated protein in the Philippines. Fortunately Vital Wheat Gluten is Cheap
How many oz is a serving?
Do we know how many calories per serving? My app doesn’t calculate it.
182 🫶🏽
I've always seen people rinse the seitan first is there a reason for that?
Great question! There's so many different methods to make seitan. Some are more complex than others, I like to keep mine very simple. I also enjoy the texture of baked seitan.
I can not have gluten. Is there a substitute?
Unfortunately not for this one. Seitan is made from vital wheat (You can’t make it without it).
I’ll share a protein loaf recipe that’s gluten-free in the future ❤️stay tuned 🥰
What you are pouring into the dry mix doesn't look like water in the measuring cup? Looks more like a broth....
You can totally use veggie broth too! I had the “liquid ingredients all mixed” coconut amino’s with water.
Anyone knows if I can use something instead of the pea protein please?
You can use more vital wheat… instead of pea flour…I prefer adding pea protein, because it gives me a better texture.
You can also use garbanzo bean flour (but this will change macros). Lupin flour (harder to find and pricey) or soy flour.
Thank you! :)
@@NatalieMatthewsFitVeganChef could you possibly use soy protein powder?
Do you let this rest?
I let it completely cool before slicing
Remember, this is a seitan that has to be on the tougher side, so you can easily slice with the food processor or a sharp mandolin to get those nice thin slices.
Is there such a thing as a “gluten- and soy-free seitan” recipe? I know someone who has these restrictions for medical reasons, and I’d love to be able to send her a recipe she can make.
No, not for seitan…But there are other alternatives like protein breads and loaves.
I made a high protein allergy friendly meatloaf you can check it here: th-cam.com/video/S56J_rmeQw0/w-d-xo.html
@@NatalieMatthewsFitVeganChef thank you 🥰
Gluten free option?
Seitan by definition is made of gluten flour, so it's literally not possible.
