Measure out 2 cups of vegetable broth and pour it into a medium-sized pot.

Set the pot over high heat and bring the broth to a boil.

Once boiling, add 1/2 cup of gluten-free pastina to the pot.

Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook the pastina over a rolling boil until most of the broth is absorbed and the pastina is soft, stirring intermittently.

Start a stopwatch to track the cooking time, checking the texture as needed.

After about 10 minutes, check if the liquid has mostly absorbed and the pastina has a porridge-like consistency.

Remove the pot from heat and gradually add the beaten egg while stirring continuously to prevent scrambling.

Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of plant-based butter and stir until melted and combined.

Mix in 1/2 cup of shredded parmesan cheese until melted and fully incorporated.

Season with salt, fresh ground black pepper, and thyme to taste before serving.
