Instructions
-
Make the Béchamel Sauce
Melt the vegan butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Add the flour and whisk constantly for about 2 minutes to form a paste (roux).
Gradually pour in the warmed vegan milk, whisking continuously to prevent lumps.
Stir in the nutritional yeast, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of nutmeg powder.
Season with salt and ground black pepper to taste.
Continue to whisk until the sauce is creamy and fully blended. Remove from heat and set aside.
-
Prepare the Bread Bowls
Slightly toast the bread bowls to warm them up and give them a subtle crisp.
Cut a circular hole in the top of each bread bowl and remove the inner bread stuffing, leaving the hollowed-out bread ready to be filled.
-
Cook the Vegan Poached Eggs (I used from Yo Egg Foods)
Bring a pot of water to a boil.
Add the frozen vegan poached eggs (YoEgg Foods) to the boiling water and cook for about 10 minutes.
Carefully remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and set aside.
-
Assemble the Bowls
Pour the warm béchamel sauce into the hollowed-out bread bowls, filling them about ¾ full.
Gently place a cooked vegan poached egg on top of each bread bowl.
Garnish with a sprinkle of ground black pepper.
-
Serve and Enjoy
Serve immediately.
When ready to eat, use a knife or spoon to cut into the poached egg, letting the rich, runny yolk ooze into the creamy béchamel sauce.
