Enjoy a delicious twist on traditional cannelloni with this Quick Baked Vegan Ham Cannelloni recipe. Using tortillas instead of crepes for a faster preparation, this dish combines the savory flavors of vegan ham and cheese with a tangy tomato base. The crispy breadcrumb coating adds a satisfying crunch, while the filling remains gooey and comforting.

Serve with a fresh salad for a complete, balanced meal.

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the chickpea flour with salt and set aside.
  2. Set up your breading station: Place all-purpose flour in one shallow dish, the chickpea flour mixture in another, and breadcrumbs in a third.
  3. To assemble the cannelloni, lay out a tortilla and spread a thin layer of tomato puree down the center.
  4. Top the tomato puree with slices of vegan ham and sprinkle with vegan cheese.
  5. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly, ensuring the filling is enclosed. If the tortilla doesn't stick, you can secure it with a toothpick.
  6. Gently roll the filled tortilla in the all-purpose flour, then dip in the chickpea flour mixture, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.
  7. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and filling.
  8. Choose your cooking method:
  9. - For air frying: Preheat air fryer to 200°C (400°F). Spray or brush the cannelloni with olive oil and air fry for 8-10 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  10. - For oven baking: Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Place cannelloni on a baking sheet, brush with olive oil, and bake for 12-15 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  11. - For pan frying: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the cannelloni for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  12. Once cooked, let the cannelloni cool for a few minutes before serving.
  13. Serve hot with a side salad of your choice.
  14. These cannelloni are best enjoyed immediately, but any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness.
