Steps

About 30–40 minutes

1

Clean and wash the celery stalks (set aside the leaves to chop roughly later). Cut the stalks into pieces.
2

Steam only the celery pieces for 7–8 minutes. Once cooked, let them cool.
3

Place the oats in a blender or food processor and pulse until you have a coarse flour.
4

Add the celery pieces and leaves to the blender. Chop everything together.
5

Mix the chopped celery mixture with the oat flour, olive oil, turmeric, soy milk, salt, and pepper. Stir until you have a uniform dough (adjust the oat flour as needed; the dough will seem soft but will firm up after baking).
6

Form medium-sized croquettes. (To prevent sticking, wet your hands frequently while shaping them.) Roll each croquette in sesame seeds.
7

Place the croquettes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20 minutes, turning them halfway through baking.
8

Once baked, remove from the oven and serve warm or cold with vegan mayo or simple tomato sauce.
