Savoury Beetroot, Carrot and Oat Bake (gluten-free & vegan)

September 26, 2016 By Hana 26 Comments

Savoury Beetroot, Carrot and Oat Bake (gluten-free & vegan)

This Savoury Beetroot, Carrot and Oat Bake is one of my old recipes from the blog that I really wanted to revisit and make a vegan version of. And because we’ve just entered the Autumn I feel that this is the perfect time to share it again.

It’s such a colourful recipe that will certainly cheer you up during those cold winter months. It’s a bit of a fusion between my Beetroot, Carrot and Thyme Savoury Muffins and Pumpkin and Oat Breakfast Bars. You could make this dish for the week ahead to have for a quick breakfast, snack or team it up with some salad for lunch or use it as a side dish with your dinner. I find this bake to be a really versatile dish.

It’s really a simple recipe to make, and not much could go wrong with it. I’ve simply grated beetroot and carrots and mixed them with fresh thyme, oregano, red onion, rolled oats, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, flax eggs and almond milk.

The result is a lovely earthy bake that I hope you’ll enjoy as much as me. I’ve used the baking paper mainly for the purpose of the pictures and you can just grease your baking dish with a little olive oil without lining it.

Happy Autumn!

Love Hana xx

      Hi, I would try butternut squash, possibly parsnips or extra beetroot. Apple might work too, but I would leave out the oregano.

    Hi ! so it is in the oven but, in no way it will turn beet red color as there is no beet juice in that recipe. So how did you do it ??? !!

      Hi Johanne, the recipe has quite a bit of beetroot in, so it should have a red colour. Once the beet mixes with the almond milk, it should let out some colour. I suppose it could also be the type of beetroot you use. I buy these beets from a biodynamic farm and they really are the best I’ve ever eaten, the colour and flavour is deep. Also the light was really good when I was taking the pics. Thank you so much for trying out this recipe, hope the taste won’t be disappointing!

    Can I use baked beetroot? Or does it have to be raw?

    Hi Hana! Could we use cooked beetroot?

    Thanks 😘

      Hi Pilar, I haven’t tried using a cooked beetroot in this recipe, but I’m sure you can if you prefer it. It will give slightly different result and might be less moist. Do let me know how it went :)

    Hi Hana,

    How could I incorporate more protein into this recipe?

    Thanks :)

      Hi Jordyn, oats and pumpkin seeds are already good source of protein, but I would probably just add in handful of shelled hemp seeds if you like an extra. I wonder if something like crumbled tempeh or red lentils would work in here?

    Hello,

    Can replace flaxseed for chia seed instead? And dried thyme will work, too?

    Thank you! :)

      Hi Quyen, I haven’t tried using chia seeds in this recipe, but I think it should be ok. Yes, you can use dried thyme, about 1tsp should be good. Hope you like it :)
