These Easy Healthier Vegan Tofu Gnocchi, pack a lot more protein and are pretty easy to make and taste amazing!

Tofu gnocchi. Yes, that’s right. Gnocchi made from tofu instead of potatoes. Who knew? Tofu makes a great reduced-carb substitute for potatoes in traditional homemade gnocchi. I am sure the Italian grannies wouldn’t approve… but here we go! Can’t please everyone 😀

The recipe is really simple – simply combine all the ingredients and pulse them in a food processor, It should form a dough. Shape into logs, cut and shape the gnocchi. Drop them onto a boiling water and cook until they float on the top. Pan-fry, or roast in the oven for a healthier option and serve with your favorite way of eating gnocchi.

I served mine with my own raw avocado pesto zucchini noodles for a wholesome meal!

3/4cup/ 80g of Nutritional yeast

1 cup/225g of oat milk

1-2 teaspoons of olive oil

Method:

1. Add tofu, nutritional yeast, oat milk flax egg and flour in a food processor. Process until it forms a sticky dough. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 2-3 minutes until it comes together. Try to use as little flour as possible.

2. Drizzle some olive oil over the dough. Break off a bit of the dough and roll into a log. Cut the log into pieces and shape the gnocchi. Bring a pan to the boil with water and drop the gnocchi. Once they float on the top – they are ready.

3. Warm some oil in a frying pan and pan-fry the gnocchi until golden. I served my gnocchi with some fried mushroom and on top of my raw avocado pesto zucchini noodles for a wholesome meal!
