Steps:
- Mix TVP, vegetable broth, and flaxseed meal together in a large mixing bowl and let sit for 5 minutes. Add oats, yeast, flour, gluten, sage, black pepper, fennel seeds, garlic powder, thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and cayenne. Mix until well blended.
- Combine water, soy sauce, and maple syrup in a separate container and mix well. Add to the TVP mixture and combine into a slightly crumbly dough. Mix well to activate gluten and let dough sit for 5 minutes; dough should stiffen slightly and become less crumbly.
- Form into tablespoon-size balls and flatten slightly.
- Heat oil in a cast iron or nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Cook sausage patties in the hot oil until golden brown, about 5 minutes on each side.

Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, then add the onions, mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until the onions and mushrooms are soft and thick almost like a paste, about 6 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce and remove from the heat. Let cool.
- Put the drained beans, chickpea flour, onion-mushroom mixture and 1 tablespoon oil in a food processor and pulse until the beans are finely chopped and hold together when squeezed, but not a smooth paste. Add the sage, thyme, maple syrup, rosemary, nutmeg, red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and pulse until combined.
- Divide the bean mixture into 12 even portions. Roll each out into a cylinder about 4 inches long, then roll up tightly in plastic wrap and twist the ends to secure.
- Set up a steamer and arrange the rolled up sausages in it (you may have to do this in batches). Heat the steamer over medium heat and once steaming, cover and steam until the sausages have plumped up, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat, uncover and refrigerate the steamed sausages until firm, about 2 hours or up to overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Unwrap the sausages and heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausages and cook, turning them as needed, until browned and crisp all over, about 5 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until heated all the way through, about 5 minutes.

Steps:
- Combine mushrooms, celery, carrot, onion, and beet in a food processor. Blend into a chunky paste.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add vegetable paste and fry until the sharp onion taste is gone, about 10 minutes.
- Combine cooked rice, flaxseed meal, sunflower seeds, maple syrup, liquid amino acids, fennel seeds, sage, red pepper flakes, nutmeg, black pepper, and thyme in a bowl. Stir until evenly mixed. Add the cooked vegetable paste and stir until sausage mixture is thoroughly combined.
- Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a clean nonstick skillet over medium heat. Scoop 1 tablespoon sausage mixture into a 1 1/2-inch patty and place in the hot skillet; repeat with remaining mixture. Brown for 3 minutes; flip and cook until browned on the other side, about 2 minutes more. Add more oil to the pan as needed.

Tips:
- Use a food processor to mince the vegetables and nuts. This will make the process much quicker and easier.
- Be sure to press the tofu well before using it. This will help to remove excess moisture and make the sausage more firm.
- Feel free to adjust the spices to your liking. You can add more or less cayenne pepper, paprika, or garlic powder, depending on your preferred level of heat and flavor.
- If you don't have a sausage stuffer, you can use a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. This will help you to create evenly shaped sausages.
- Be careful not to overcook the sausages. They should be cooked through, but still slightly firm in the center.
Conclusion:
This vegan breakfast sausage is a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional pork sausage. It's made with wholesome ingredients like tofu, vegetables, and nuts, and it's packed with flavor. Whether you're serving it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, this sausage is sure to be a hit.
