Equipment

  • Cutting board
  • Chef's knife
  • Cast iron or non-stick pan
  • Food processor
  • Colander (for rinsing beans)

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbs Olive oil plus a little extra for cooking
  • 2 cloves Garlic crushed
  • 24 Sage leaves approximately 4g
  • 2 cups Great Northern beans drained and rinsed if using canned
  • 1 cup Rolled oats
  • ½ cup Walnuts
  • ½ cup Diced apple Pink Lady, Sweet Emerald, or Golden Delicious recommended
  • 1 Tbs Dark maple syrup
  • 2 tsp Applewood smoked sea salt
  • ¼ tsp Smoked paprika
  • 2 Tbs Flax

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add garlic and sage leaves, then fry until slightly crispy and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer fried garlic and sage along with all remaining ingredients to a food processor. Process until mixture is mostly smooth while still maintaining some texture. Mixture will start to stick to processor walls when ready.
  • Divide mixture into 16 equal portions and roll each into a log approximately 6 inches long.
  • Heat a little olive oil in a cast iron or non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook logs for 4 to 5 minutes on each side to get a rich, caramelized char.
